25 teams of university students and postgraduates will present to the experts their solutions to engineering cases based on materials from leading industry enterprises. Three SamSTU national teams will travel to Moscow for the finals.

The opening ceremony will take place on April 5 at 10.00 a.m. at the address: Pervomaiskaya St., 18, assembly hall (2nd floor).

The Case-in International Engineering Championship is Russia's only federal case championship of fuel and energy and mineral resources complexes, an effective tool for transferring practical knowledge, experience and new competencies to future engineering specialists. The championship includes 5 areas (Leagues): Electric power industry, Mining, Geological exploration, Metallurgy, Oil and gas business. The championship is a competition in which student teams need to solve an engineering case prepared based on materials from leading industry companies in ten days and defend their ideas before an expert commission consisting of representatives of industry companies, scientific and educational organizations. The championship consists of in-person qualifying stages held at university venues and the Moscow final for the best teams. The organizers of the Championship are the Reliable Change Foundation and the Non−profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders. The League on Electric Power Industry is co–organized by the International Council for Large High−Voltage Electrical Systems (CIGRE), and the League on Oil and Gas Industry is co-organized by Tyumen Industrial University.

Over the five years of its implementation, the Championship has become an authoritative industry platform bringing together all parties interested in developing Russia's engineering and technical potential.: the government, companies, higher education institutions, sectoral public initiatives, and advanced youth. By participating in the Championship, you get involved in solving real problems of industrial enterprises, learn from the invaluable experience of outstanding professionals and have the opportunity to build your career trajectory while still a student. All the knowledge and competencies that you will acquire during the Championship, you will have to prove in the very near future, already as young specialists.
