Shenzhen is a city of sub-provincial administrative status in southern China's Guangdong province, situated immediately north of Hong Kong. Owing to China's economic liberalization under the policies of reformist leader Deng Xiaoping, the area became China's first - and ultimately most successful - Special Economic Zone. Shenzhen Polytechnic is a higher TVET institution invested by the Shenzhen municipal government for full-time education, mainly focusing on the cultivation of applied professional techniques with high standards and qualifications on the front line of production, construction, management and services as well.

Founded in 1993, the Polytechnic, today, has four campuses (the East, the West, the North, and the Overseas Chinese Town Campuses) which, together, occupy a total area of 168 hectares, 49 hectares of which are buildings.

Shenzhen Polytechnic’s Industrial Training Center, for example, includes 28 training laboratories and 116 branch laboratories. In addition, the Polytechnic operates 330 off-campus practice bases.
