Altai-Coke specialists took part in the International Engineering Championship

Altai-Koks specialists (part of NLMK Group) acted as experts at the qualifying round of the International Engineering Championship "Case-in". The fifth anniversary International Engineering Championship "Case-in" is taking place all over Russia. One of the qualifying rounds was held at Tomsk Polytechnic University in three areas: "Electric power industry", "Geological exploration" and "Oil and gas business".

Along with teachers from Tomsk University and representatives of other organizations, the Altai-Coke League commission included employees of Altai-Coke: Dmitry Mashkin, head of the grid and substation section of the specialized workshop for the repair of coke-chemical electrical equipment, and Pavel Stroganov, an energy engineer at the thermal power plant. Seven student teams participated in the Electric Power Industry League. They were offered a problematic situation: providing electricity to the mining and processing plant, which has just been put into operation and is not yet connected to the power plant. They had ten days to study the structure of the plant, its production volumes, develop projects and prepare presentations.

The experts assessed the technological effectiveness of the proposed solutions, economic feasibility, novelty, originality, and the use of available innovations. The presentation of the project also played an important role: confidence during the presentation, competent answers to the commission's questions, clarity, and structured slides. All participants of the qualifying round were presented with corporate gifts from Altai-Coke. Elena Malyshevskaya, head of the Personnel training and development Department, held a career guidance event for students: she spoke about the specifics of production, career opportunities and social guarantees of Altai-Coke. According to the results of the qualifying round, the first place in the direction of "Electric power industry" was taken by the student team "Smart".

She will perform in the main round of the Case-in Championship, which will be held on May 30-31 in Moscow. The Case-in International Engineering Championship is the largest practice-oriented competition in Russia and the CIS countries for solving practical problems among university students and postgraduates. As part of the qualifying stages, the teams solve an engineering case dedicated to the actual problems of a real enterprise. The winner of each qualifying stage is one team that gets the right to participate in the Championship final.
