IRNTU students who won the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship were awarded certificates for internship at ALROSA. 
At the rector's meeting on October 26, the award was given to the Union of Mining engineers team, which became the champion of the Student League in the field of Mining. The rector of the university, Mikhail Kornyakov, congratulated the students on their victory and wished them to successfully master the basics of the profession at ALROSA, a key partner of the university.

The team of absolute leaders included fifth-year students of IRNTU - future surveyors Ilya Zikratsky and Elizaveta Mironova, as well as Nikolai Makhno and Viktor Katanaev, who master the specialties "Mineral processing" and "Electrification and automation of mining production." Polytechnic students became finalists of the CASE-IN for the first time, where they had to compete with 16 strong teams. 

According to the future surveyor Ilya Zikratsky, the experience of participating in engineering competitions, as well as an integrated approach to solving the case, helped to win.
"We solved the problem of airing the Yubileyny quarry of the Aikhalsky Mining and Processing Complex in Yakutia, which in a few years is moving from the category of deep quarries to ultra-deep. The advantage of our idea is to use the widest possible set of tools. In particular, the jury was presented with a set of measures to improve the aerology of the quarry, which will reduce the methane content in the air. An artificial ventilation system, the transfer of equipment to gas-powered equipment and other measures have been proposed," the team captain explained.
According to him, previously all participants of the CASE-IN championship had already practiced at ALROSA. The company provides good living and working conditions. Under the guidance of competent mentors, students gain their first industrial experience. 

"Winning the engineering championship gives us the opportunity to complete a quality internship without competitive selection. We intend to use the certificate in September 2021 to complete our pre-graduate studies," Ilya Zikratsky added. 
Another Polytechnic team, ABCN, distinguished itself in the superfinal among electric power companies and took second place. 

Konstantin Suslov, Head of the Department of Power Supply and Electrical Engineering, was awarded the Badge of Glory for his special contribution to the development and organization of the Engineering championship. 

As previously reported CASE-IN is one of the projects of the Russia - Land of Opportunity platform. The championship is an international system of competitions for solving engineering cases among schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fields of fuel and energy and mineral resources complexes. The competition is supported annually by the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation. In 2020, the intellectual tournament was held remotely. The summing up ceremony took place in September in Moscow at the NUST MISIS site. 

532 students and young engineers took part in the final events of the championship, including representatives of 53 technical universities in Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan, as well as novice specialists from 17 leading companies in the fuel and energy complex and the Moscow Energy Complex of the Russian Federation. They presented ideas for the technological modernization of fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes to the expert community.
