CASE-IN Engineering circle opens in schools in Moscow and St. Petersburg

The Organizing Committee of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship continues to implement educational circles, an additional general development program designed to develop students' engineering thinking through familiarization with engineering cases.

In the fall of 2024, clubs will open in four schools at once: No. 1317 in Moscow, No. 327, 334, and 667 in St. Petersburg. The program of the circle is designed for students in grades 5-11 (from 11 to 18 years old) who have a steady interest in technical creativity and want to master the basics of engineering. Special knowledge and skills are not required.

"The pilot circle was held last academic year at school No. 334 in St. Petersburg. This experience was recognized as successful, so the management of the educational institution decided to re-join our initiative. We hope that over time, even more schools will open their doors to host the club and develop students' professional skills.", - comments the founder and co-chairman of the organizing committee of the CASE-IN championship Artem Korolev. 

The program of the circle develops engineering and general scientific skills, industrial thinking of children, and also involves them in scientific and technical creativity and solving real production problems. The knowledge gained will help students successfully participate in prestigious federal projects, including the CASE-IN championship, as well as decide on an engineering profession and a university to master it.

Classes in the circle are conducted by the pedagogical council, which includes teachers from schools and universities, as well as experts from the championship and members of the CASE-IN Winners Club: Pavel Suslikov, Nikita Kholmov, Maria Rezaeva, Nikita Maslennikov and Evgeny Zhiltsov. They will teach young engineers how to find effective solutions to complex production tasks, share best practices and engineering competencies, as well as skills in presentations and presentations to the expert commission.

If you have any questions about organizing an educational engineering group at your school, please contact the project manager, Anna Koroleva: +7 916 365 50 65, ak@casesim.ru.

The CASE-IN Organizing Committee will not only train teachers in the new methodology, but will also provide access to The CASE-IN Simulator platform, School League cases and various interactive tasks.
