High school students from Yaroslavl will go to Moscow for the final of the Autumn Cup

A team of Yaroslavl high school students has reached the final of the School League of the Autumn Cup of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", which is part of the Russia – Land of Opportunities platform. Young researchers from Lyceum No. 86 will present their solution to the experts of the championship finals in Moscow. 

The X anniversary season of the championship is dedicated to the theme "Industry 4.0". In the qualifying stage of the School League, students in grades 9-11 from 160 schools worked on cases related to digitalization and the introduction of information technology in Russian companies. On behalf of SIBUR 191, a team of high school students explored the possibilities of artificial intelligence, digital twins, predictive diagnostic systems, and Big Data and developed solutions that are interesting for the industry.

The 16 finalist teams of the Autumn Cup included the team of Yaroslavl Lyceum No. 86 "Children of Nobel". Team captain Maria Glustrostova and her colleagues Vasilisa Morozova, Kirill Nekrasov and Kirill Ignatov analyzed the causes of accidents on the technological equipment of one of the enterprises of PJSC SIBUR Holding and developed ideas to improve the reliability and efficiency of this equipment using Industry 4.0 technologies.

The students suggested using wide-angle infrared cameras to detect leaks in pipelines.

In the final of the High School League, the case "Industry 4.0: new competencies" awaits high school students. Future engineers will have to understand how personnel requirements should change, taking into account the introduction of Industry 4.0 technologies, what employees should additionally learn and what skills to master. The students will propose the concept of an educational platform for staff training and development based on Industry 4.0 technologies and assess how the introduction of Industry 4.0 technologies will affect SIBUR's ESG ratings.

The young engineers will defend their solutions to the industry community at the final of the Autumn Cup, which will be held on December 16, 2022 in Moscow.

The champions and prize-winners of the league will be rewarded with additional points for the Unified State Exam when applying to leading universities in Russia. In addition, the winners will receive vouchers for specialized shifts at the All–Russian children's centers "Eaglet" and "Smena" and will be able to travel around Russia as part of the ANO project "Russia - the land of Opportunities". "More than a journey."
