Purpose: This research was made with the intention to determine the relationship between research policies and scientific production of public university teachers. Method: The study developed the non-experimental design. The population included 120 teachers and the sample 100 of them, because of an intentional non-probabilistic procedure. The instruments were validated with Cronbach's Alpha. Results and conclusion: The results were of 0.973 and 0.965. The conclusion was that exist a significant relationship between the variables, with Rho of .587 and p<0.05. So, if teachers have based research policies, they can work on scientific production with more effectiveness. Research implications: To achieve the main goal, it is important to invest on the projects, train the teachers and try to improve the research collaboration policies. Originality/value: Research production is linked to the commitment of distributing information and going on education area.
