The qualifying stage of the CASE-IN championship is taking place in Vladivostok.

The qualifying stage of the Student League of the IX International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" is being held at the Far Eastern Federal University (FEFU) in an online format. The students have already defended their decisions in the areas of Mining, Geological Exploration, Electric Power industry, and Oil and Gas business and are awaiting the final results. The projects on "Petrochemistry" and "Project Engineering" will be presented by the participants to the jury on April 2.

"While preparing for the CASE-IN championship, students delve deeper into the intricacies of the profession and solve real production tasks, therefore gaining important competitive advantages. The expert commissions include representatives of industry leaders who evaluate both the theoretical training and the practical results of the students. In the future, the best students will not only be able to complete internships at leading engineering companies, but also begin their career path there. The solutions proposed by FEFU students at past championships are already being implemented in production in leading oil and gas companies.", — said Alexander Wagner, Vice—rector and Director of the FEFU Polytechnic Institute. 

All the cases for the qualifying stage were developed based on the actual production tasks of the university's partners: ALROSA, Tatneft, SIBUR Holding, NIPIGAZ, and System Operator of the Unified Energy System. The central theme this year was "Sustainable development".

It should be noted that 82 students from 21 FEFU teams participated in the stage in four areas. The winners of the 1st-2nd place will receive an invitation to the semi-finals, which will be held in a remote format in April. The best teams will go to the finals in Moscow. The winners will receive valuable prizes, the opportunity to attend All―Russian industry summer forums, advantages in applying to graduate and postgraduate studies at partner universities of the championship, as well as an invitation to practice in leading companies in the country. 

For the ninth time, Far Eastern Federal University is hosting the qualifying stage of the CASE-IN championship, which is part of the presidential platform "Russia is a land of opportunityFEFU student teams regularly receive the right to represent the university in the finals of the prestigious youth competition and eventually become its the winners. It should be noted that the training of engineering personnel for the development of the innovative economy of Russia is one of the priorities in the university's activities and the main mission of the FEFU Polytechnic Institute.
