Abstract: Colleges and universities are strategic highlands for science and technology resources allocation and original innovation. In order to explore the influencing factors and configuration paths of science and technology resources allocation on the high-quality development of innovation efficiency in colleges and universities, by using the fsQCA method and taking 31 provincial universities as cases, the influencing factors and configuration of the allocation structure, ways and environment of science and technology resources on the innovation efficiency in colleges and universities are explored. It is found that the applied research path, the experimental development path and the resources-driven path are three types of configuration paths that guide high innovation efficiency in colleges and universities, and none of them can alone constitute a necessary condition for influencing the high or low level of innovation efficiency in colleges and universities. Economic development level plays a universal core role in promoting the output of high innovation efficiency in colleges and universities, with market resources allocation and planned resources allocation commonly serving as the core driving conditions. Moreover, the configuration path leading to the output of high or low innovation efficiency shows significant regional and temporal differences.

Key words: allocation of scientific and technological resources; college and university; innovation efficiency
