This paper aims to evaluate the relationship between Municipality and University in Mashhad using Triple Helix Model based on critical success factors.

Population of the study includes expert from Mashhad Municipality, city council and also professors of Ferdowsi University of Mashhad and Khayyam University which have had cooperation with the Municipality. Thus, a sample size of 128 participants was estimated using Cochran formula. Data were analyzed using T-test and Friedman.
