Irkutsk Aluminum Plant employees have become CASE-IN experts

RUSAL became a partner of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" in the field of Metallurgy.

The qualifying stage of the annual CASE-IN championship was held in IRNTU. Students solved engineering cases in the interests of various industrial enterprises.

The work of the participants was evaluated by an expert commission, which included employees of the Irkutsk Aluminum Plant of RUSAL: Albina Kuznetsova, head of the production and dispatch department of IRKAZ, and Stanislav Kislitsyn, chairman of the trade union organization of the Directorate for Production Support and the Directorate for Electrolysis Production.

Albina Kuznetsova, Head of the Production and Dispatch Department of the Irkutsk Aluminum Plant, Chairman of the Expert Commission on Metallurgy: "This is not the first time I have participated in this event. These are annual competitions for solving engineering cases. The theme of the metallurgical direction of this year's championship is "RUSAL: leader of innovation". Metallurgical students developed import substitution mechanisms to reduce the cost of aluminum, as well as designed measures to reduce the carbon footprint, and assessed the potential risks of the proposed solutions. The students have a high level of training, they are literate and confident in their reports and answers to questions. It is worth noting that the participants of this championship replenish the external personnel reserve of the company. I wish success to the teams that have passed the next stage."

The winning teams of the qualifying stage will receive tickets to the next stage of the championship - the semi–finals, where they will demonstrate their skills. The semi-finals will determine the finalists for each industry area.

Champions and prize-winners of the project will be able to complete internships in partner companies of the project with the possibility of employment, including RUSAL.

Today, work with young people is among the priorities of RUSAL's social program.
