4 universities of the Rostov region will host the engineering marathon of the CASE-IN Championship at once

March will turn out to be unseasonably hot for the engineering youth of the Rostov region: four specialized universities of Rostov-on-Don and Novocherkassk will host the qualifying stages of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", organized by the Reliable Change Foundation and included in the presidential platform "Russia – the land of Opportunities". Talented students will demonstrate their solutions for the sustainable development of industry, and the best teams will advance to the semifinals of the prestigious competition.

The engineering marathon will be opened on March 16 by students of the Southern Federal University.

On March 18, the qualifying stage will be held at Rostov State University of Economics.

On April 2, the Don State Technical University will take over the baton.

Project defenses at all universities are planned in a remote format. Educational institutions are also united by one industry area - the Digital Atom. Within its framework, future IT and nuclear industry specialists will have to create a prototype of a digital remote immersion system for new employees in the environment of Rosatom State Corporation, one of the partners of the Student League of the Championship. The young people will prepare their decisions in 10 days.

By the way, for the first time, three universities are taking part in the main season of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". This opens up new opportunities for Rostov students to develop their creative and intellectual potential.: Students who have demonstrated the best projects will receive benefits for admission to master's and postgraduate studies at 20 universities, and will also be able to complete internships in industry companies with the possibility of employment in the future.

Novocherkassk will complete a series of engineering tests in the Rostov region. On March 24, at the Platov South Russian State Polytechnic University (NPI), the full-time and part-time qualifying stage will be held in three areas at once: in addition to the aforementioned "Digital Atom", these are "Electric Power Industry" and "Mining".

Future mining engineers, on the instructions of ALROSA experts, optimize the cost of airing the F.B. Andreev Udachny underground mine in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).

The young power engineers, in turn, will fulfill a task from JSC SO UES and develop solutions for the development of regional energy systems.

The winning teams in the qualifying stages will have the right to defend the honor of their university and region in the semi-finals of the Southern Federal District, which will be held on April 27.  The winners will present their projects in Moscow at the final of the CASE-IN Championship.
