Ufa schoolchildren participate in the International Engineering Championship

10th grade students of Ufa Lyceum No. 62 are students of the Futurika Youth Innovation Center. This is their first experience of participating in the qualifying stage. The Autumn Cup of the School League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", the press service of the State Enterprise of the Republic of Belarus informs.

The CASE-IN Championship is an international competition system for solving engineering problems for schoolchildren, students and young specialists of fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes. The project is part of the Russia – Land of Opportunity platform and is aimed at popularizing the working and engineering professions.

The Ufa guys, as part of two teams, took on two difficult tasks in the areas of "Case solving" and "Engineering Solutions Competition". According to the first one, it is necessary to "build" an artificial island in the coastal zone: analyze the situation, understand the essence of the problem and propose possible solutions. According to the second one, it was decided to create a mock–up of a sea-based oil platform, but the task is more complicated - you need to make a functioning technical device. By November 25, the contestants must submit their work for evaluation by the commission.

The best teams according to the results of the expert assessment will take part in the final stage. The winners of the Autumn Cup are the teams that scored the highest score in the final. Winning the "Case Solution" guarantees receiving additional USE points for individual achievements in admission to specialized universities, and in the "Engineering Solutions Competition" – valuable prizes and the opportunity to participate in specialized educational shifts and forums.
