Voronezh students became semi-finalists of the Autumn CASE-IN Cup

The VGUIT "Thoughts Aloud" team led by Evgeny Hlabystov, a graduate student at the Department of Technology of Organic Compounds and Polymer Processing, reached the semifinals of the Autumn Cup of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship.

The guys took 5th place out of 104 teams, qualifying among the 15 semi-finalists. Another team, CHEmily VGUIT, took 35th place.

The championship is held with the support of one of the university's leading partners, SIBUR Holding.

In 10 days, the participants had to analyze the needs for petrochemical products and trends in their consumption in their region. It was also necessary to conduct a comparative analysis of various modes of transport (including alternative ones) that can be used to deliver the presented products, and build an optimal logistics model for delivering these products to your region and storing them in warehouses.

The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is an international competition system for solving engineering cases for schoolchildren, students and young professionals. The Championship is supported by the platform of the NGO "Russia - the Land of Opportunities" and is being implemented in accordance with the Action Plan aimed at popularizing the working and engineering professions, approved by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation No. 366-r dated March 5, 2015.
