22 student teams – in the final of the Autumn CASE-IN Cup

For the main prizes of the Autumn Cup The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship, which is supported by the presidential platform "Russia – the land of opportunities" 22 student teams continue to compete. The young people have prepared effective solutions for the development of Russia's leading industries and are ready to present them to the expert community in the final. The Student League is supported by the National Research University "MEI" and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

As part of the Autumn Cup, students solve tasks on the main theme of the XII season of the CASE-IN championship, "Lean Manufacturing". According to the founder and co-chairman of the organizing committee of the CASE-IN championship Artyom Korolev The organizers are steadily expanding the range of the championship's competitions, so this year a new one has joined the "traditional" areas – "Space Technologies".

"We are expanding the funnel of CASE-IN participants and are pleased to welcome students of specialties related to astronautics and aviation to our friendly industry youth community. We are sure that in the course of solving an interesting case and communicating with industry experts, the guys will be able to master the skills of cross-functional interaction, gain professional knowledge and invaluable experience, which will become a springboard to the start of a successful career.", - said Artem Korolev.

The new field of Space Technologies allowed students of Bauman Moscow State Technical University (National Research University), Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow Aviation Institute (National Research University) and Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology (National Research University) to demonstrate their abilities.

At the final of the Autumn Cup, 10 student teams will present the developed concepts of an optimal management system model for multi-satellite orbital groupings based on automation and lean manufacturing technologies, ensuring increased management efficiency in the planning horizon until 2033.

In the industry-wide direction of the Student League, 354 teams participated in solving cases from the largest industry companies. However, only 12 of the strongest teams managed to make it to the finals, representing the National Research University "MEI" and its branch in Smolensk, St. Petersburg Mining University of Empress Catherine II, Kuzbass State Technical University named after T.F. Gorbachev, Perm National Research Polytechnic University, Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B.N. Yeltsin University, Tyumen Industrial University, Kazan National Research Technological University, Almetyevsk State Technological University Higher School of Petroleum, National Research Technological University MISIS, Peter the Great St. Petersburg Polytechnic University, St. Petersburg State University of Architecture and Civil Engineering and UMMC Technical University.

To participate in the decisive competition on behalf of ALROSA, future engineers have developed a logistics model for the company's fuel supply based on optimization methods and lean manufacturing tools, ensuring the achievement of an equilibrium price and economic efficiency in the planning horizon until 2029. The students' ideas will be evaluated by leading experts from the partners of the championship, ALROSA, SIBUR, United Metallurgical Company and Gazpromneft – MNPZ.

The final of the Autumn Cup The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship It will take place in Moscow on December 9th. The best engineering student minds in Russia will not only present their final solutions to the industry community, but will also take part in numerous finals events, get acquainted with the promising developments of their peers and will be able to ask questions to the heads of the largest companies.

The winners and prize–winners of the Student League, including those in the Space Technologies field, will have the opportunity to enroll in master's and postgraduate programs at partner universities of the championship on preferential terms, as well as complete internships and internships at partner companies of the championship with the possibility of further employment.
