Overview
Korea Polytechnics, known as KOPO, is a national network of vocational and technical campuses, and the Incheon campus is its branch in the Seoul and Gyeonggi region.
The campus belongs to the network's second college group and offers hands-on technical education built around workshops and laboratories. Its main degree route is the two-year course leading to an industrial associate degree, open to high-school graduates and offered in daytime and evening formats.

Graduates of junior-college programmes can continue into the evening degree-deepening course covering the third and fourth years of a bachelor's pathway.
The campus also runs non-degree vocational tracks, including high-tech courses for people who already hold a college qualification and master craftsman courses, as well as training for jobseekers from migrant backgrounds and mid-career adults.
