The winners of the CASE-IN Student League have been announced

The final of the XII season of the Autumn Cup of the International Engineering Championship CASE-IN was held in Moscow. The participants presented to the expert community 63 promising solutions for the implementation of lean manufacturing principles in key areas of the Russian industrial complex.

The tasks for the contestants were prepared by the partner companies of the championship, taking into account real production situations. 63 youth teams reached the finals, and 252 future and current engineers presented their ideas to the expert community.

I welcomed the finalists of the championship via video link. Olga Petrova, Deputy Minister of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation.

"The large-scale technological development challenges facing our country can only be solved by qualified and motivated engineers. It is such professionals who are raised and educated by the CASE-IN Championship. Tens of thousands of schoolchildren and students have become its participants over the entire period. This is a significant contribution to the popularization and development of engineering professions. Thanks to the teachers, teachers, and mentors! Together we are a force!" said Olga Petrova.

In 2024, a new direction was opened for representatives of the Student League at the championship – "Space technologies", in which students of Russian universities were able to prove themselves. In the final, 10 teams presented to the experts the 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. The prizes in the "space" direction were taken by the teams of the Bauman Moscow State Technical University "Pulsar" and "Flight of dreams" and the MIPT team "Scouring".

On behalf of ALROSA, 12 of the best teams in the general branch of the Student League have developed a logistics model for the supply of fuel to the company based on optimization methods and lean manufacturing tools, ensuring the achievement of an equilibrium price and economic efficiency by 2029.

The first place in this direction was taken by the team Kuzbass Express (KuzSTU). In second place is the team "The Age of Resonance" NIU "MEI", bronze medalist – PetroVision (St. Petersburg Mining University).

As prizes, the winners and prize-winners of the championship received the right on preferential terms to enroll in graduate and postgraduate studies at universities, complete internships and internships in partner companies with the possibility of further employment.

The autumn Cup of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is held with the support of the presidential platform "Russia – the land of Opportunities", the National Research University "MEI" and the Ministry of Education and Science of Russia.
