The eighth–grader of "UNIKUM" at KuzSTU is the champion of the School league "CASE-IN"

A pupil of the Center for Children's Scientific and Engineering Creativity at KuzSTU "UniqUe", created with the support of the Andrey Melnichenko Foundation and the Siberian Generating Company, became the winner of the Engineering Solutions Competition of the School League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN".

Grigory Plaksin proposed the best solution in the "Layout Contest" nomination. He managed to create the most accurate layout with active elements, reflecting different ways of obtaining electricity from primary energy sources. Grigory is a student of the 8th grade, at the center at KuzSTU "Unique" he is studying in the direction of "Intelligent electromechanics". Grigory fought for victory among 45 schoolchildren representing different cities of Russia.: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Novosibirsk, Chelyabinsk, Krasnodar and others.

"I always try to improve my skills. In previous seasons, my layouts were smaller in size, included fewer elements and did not fully reflect the closed cycle of processes, they were executed less technically, so only the 2nd and 3rd places were submitted to me. I really wanted to win this season, and I did it!", – the winner celebrates.

"Creating layouts is an important element of the educational process in engineering fields. While working on them, the students develop and develop competencies in design, scaling, technical creativity and engineering. When working on the operating elements of layouts, knowledge in electronics, robotics and programming is also important. Grigory, despite his young age, is not only studying, but also able to create a real engineering product.", – Tatiana Mamzina, head of the Central Research Institute at KuzSTU "Unique", told us.
