Incheon National University (President Park Jong-tae) was honored with the grand prize in the "K-NBA Korea National Brand Awards" category. With this, Incheon National University has achieved the feat of being selected as the No. 1 in the national university category for the fourth consecutive year since winning the award in 2022.

The Korea National Brand Awards are hosted by New York Festivals, one of the world's three major advertising festivals, sponsored by the Chosun Ilbo, and selected and announced brands in each field representing Korea based on the national brand competitiveness index every year.

Last year, it ranked 13th in the WURI World University Evaluation, which evaluates the ranking of innovative universities, and ranked the highest among domestic universities.

President Park Jong-tae said, "Incheon University is growing into a global university with international competitiveness as it has recently received good reviews not only at home but also abroad," adding, "As a national university representing Incheon, we will achieve growth aiming for the top 10 in Korea and the top 100 in the world."
