The university offers five undergraduate-level TVET majors: Mechanical and Electrical Engineering Technology, Equipment Intelligence Technology, Automotive Engineering Technology, Industrial Internet Technology, and Modern Logistics Management. This year, LZPU plans to enroll 1,000 undergraduate students.

Located in Liuzhou—an important industrial hub in southwest China, the only national pilot city for industry-education integration in Guangxi, and one of the first modern apprenticeship pilot cities in China—LZPU is dedicated to cultivating high-caliber technical and skilled professionals to support the transformation and upgrading of Guangxi's advanced manufacturing industry, and build a hub for open cooperation and innovation in vocational education for the ASEAN region. Through these efforts, LZPU strives to make significant contributions to the expansion and enhancement of undergraduate-level vocational education in advanced manufacturing.

LVTC, the predecessor of LZPU, is among the first full-time comprehensive higher vocational colleges approved by the Chinese government in 1998. Over the years, LVTC has developed a distinctive education philosophy of "training master craftsmen with industrial background". It is the only national demonstration college for the advanced manufacturing industry in Guangxi, a national high-quality college, and an institution covered by the National Double High-level Plan. LVTC has won the honorary title of "Outstanding Institution for Employment and Entrepreneurship among General Institutions of Higher Education in Guangxi" for 23 consecutive years, and is also renowned as the "Cradle of Industrial Craftsmen in Guangxi".
