Novocherkassk awarded the winners of the "CASE-IN" qualifying stage

The award ceremony for the winners of the qualifying stage of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" took place at the Platov South Russian State Polytechnic University (NPI).

The participants had a day full of excitement when they defended their decisions. The expert commissions also faced a difficult task, which had to listen and evaluate the teams' decisions according to several criteria: technology, originality and novelty of the solution, economics, presentation and presentation, answers to questions.

The award ceremony for the best teams began with the "Mining" direction. The experienced South mining team became the winner among the miners, the Na Gora team took the second place, and the Bergarbeiter team took the third place.

The South mining winning team represented the Shakhty Automobile Institute of the Ural State Pedagogical University (NPI) at the qualifying round.

«We are all fifth-year students, and we have a lot of experience participating in this championship., - the captain of the team Svetlana Ragrina told. - We not only enjoy participating in this competition every year, but it also helps us develop in our professional field. Every year we are offered interesting and different cases, and we are really passionate about preparing solutions. This year's case set us a difficult task. If earlier we had to come up with technology and "develop" a deposit, now the organizers have offered to deal with the aerology of mining enterprises, and our task was to optimize ready-made enterprises based on the data obtained about them.».

On this day, special attention was paid to the debutants of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" - FITU teams who performed in the direction of "Digital Atom". The guys got off to a convincing start, and three teams of students from the IIST department managed to climb the podium. The first place was won by Team Rocket, the second by Ping NPI, and the third by Qbit.

Associate Professor of the Department of Information and Measurement Systems and Technologies M.B. Khoroshko assisted the teams in uploading solutions to the platform, advised them, supervised the registration process of participants and experts, and also served as moderator of the qualifying round.

This first experience also became interesting for Maxim Boleslavovich, and he shared his impressions.: "The guys liked the proposed case. At first, we thought we would have to "deal" with the nuclear industry, but fortunately, the task turned out to be closer to information technology. We hope to participate in the championship next year.».

The Team Rocket team is confident that their victory is largely due to Captain Evgeny Moryakhin.

"Evgeny managed to organize us, which was not easy, to find his strengths in everyone and guide us on the right path., - said the guys. - Even if we hadn't won the first place, we would still have been winners for ourselves: we gave our best, did everything we could, and prepared well for the defense. And the idea we have proposed is very good!"

The determination of the winner in the Electric Power Industry League did not come as a surprise. The palm of the championship here once again belongs to the veterans of the championship - the renowned team "KIUM 100" led by Veronika Lebedeva.

This year, the captain of the team is graduating from the walls of the YURGPU (NPI). The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship accompanied the young professional throughout his student years, giving him a chance to prove himself and his knowledge in solving cases on the tasks of modern energy.

"A person who has participated in this championship at least once returns to its site year after year., - Veronica talks about the force of gravity of the "CASE-IN". - Each time we are faced with a new, even more difficult task, and we overcome ourselves, becoming better. This is the essence: each participant learns to work in a team and at the same time declares himself as a professional."

The "Genius" team won the silver medal of the qualifying stage in the "Electric Power Industry" league, the guys from the "Contact" team became the bronze medalists.

Mature and mature power engineers are being replaced by new strong teams. Even the first-year students of the EnF performed well in the qualifying stage of the championship! This point was noted by the Chairman of the expert commission, A.S. Bondarenko, Head of the Development and Innovation Department of the branch of PJSC ROSSETI Yug - Rostovenergo: "Freshmen have a chance to gain experience by participating in the championship every year and significantly increase the chances of winning prizes and even winning," Anton Sergeyevich is sure. "There is a backbone in the YURGPU (NPI) that we rely on."

Some of the participants in the qualifying round of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" gained new experience, others confirmed their competencies, and together the students stepped onto a new stage of professional development.
