NSTU NETI will become the venue for the CASE-IN championship

Novosibirsk Region students are invited to participate in the XIII season The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. The qualifying stage in the field of "Electric Power Industry" will traditionally be held at the Novosibirsk State Technical University of NETI. The championship is supported by the presidential platform "Russia – the land of opportunities" and it is included in the "Science to Win" initiative of the plan for the Decade of Science and Technology in Russia.

The purpose of the Championship is to popularize engineering and technical education and train specialists for companies in the fuel and energy complex, the Moscow Energy Complex, the nuclear industry and related industries. Participants will learn how to solve real production tasks and compete for the main prizes – additional USE points, paid internships and career prospects.

Competitions are held in three age categories: among schoolchildren, students and young professionals.

The Student League is traditionally distinguished by its scale — in the new season, in-person qualifying stages will be held in 83 specialized universities, and students from more than 200 universities will take part in them. There are 11 industry areas in this league: architecture, design, construction, and housing and communal services; biotechnology; geological exploration; mining; mining machinery and equipment; metallurgy; petrochemistry; oil and gas; electric power; design engineering; thermal power engineering.

On March 25, 2025, NSTU NETI will act as a platform for the qualifying stage in the field of "Electric Power Industry".

Student teams will have to develop projects to introduce innovations into production, which should become an impetus for achieving technological sovereignty and forming a strong and competitive national economy. The strongest teams of the qualifying competition will represent the region in the semi-finals. The authors of the best ideas will receive a ticket to the final stage of the Championship.

"One of the main positive effects of participating in the CASE-IN is the formation of a community of professionals," says the winner of the Championship from NSTU  THIS IS Gleb Nesterenko. – I have met a lot of interesting people on this project, many of whom I interact with in my professional activities and beyond. Therefore, I wholeheartedly urge students to participate in the championship and other projects for young power engineers."

Today, Gleb participates in the CASE-IN as a mentor to the teams and an expert who evaluates the decisions of the contestants. He is also a member of the CASE-IN Winners Club and popularizes the engineering field.

The final of the CASE-IN championship will be held in Moscow at the end of May 2025. Young and future engineers will present the final versions of their solutions to the industry community, share their experiences with colleagues, receive valuable advice from experts and will be able to establish professional contacts for further implementation of their ideas.

The champions and prize–winners of the Student League will enroll in master's and postgraduate studies at partner universities on preferential terms, as well as complete internships and internships in partner companies with the possibility of further employment.

The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is held with the support of the presidential platform "Russia – the land of Opportunities". The organizers of the Championship are the Reliable Change Foundation, the Non-profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders and AstraLogica LLC.
