TIU became one of the best engineering universities in Russia according to CASE-IN

In Russia, the best universities with the most promising personnel for the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes have been identified. The rating was compiled by experts The International Engineering Championship CASE-IN with the support of The Presidential Platform "Russia is a land of opportunity".

Annual results ratings The Student League reports were published on the eve of the XIV championship season and traditionally serve as a tool for assessing the quality of engineering education and motivating students to build successful careers in leading industries. 

 "When forming the ratings, both historical performance (systematic participation and victories over the years) and current achievements are taken into account, which make it possible to mark universities that have recently joined the movement, but are already showing high results.  But the main criterion is the places that the student teams occupy in the finals of the competition., – explained the Director of Communications of the Presidential Platform "Russia – the land of opportunities" Olga Dobrina. – We thank educational institutions for their involvement in the system of engineering competitions and the contribution they make to the development of future professionals."

The CASE-IN Student League currently has 14 ratings in key areas of the Russian industry: from mining and exploration to petrochemicals, automation, architecture and space technologies. 

Tyumen Industrial University He was twice ranked in the top three along with such universities as Irkutsk National Research Technical University, Kazan National Research Technological University, Samara State Technical University.

Rise in TIU ratings He succeeded due to the successful performance of students in 2024 and 2025. One of the creators of this breakthrough is a graduate student Dmitry Belov, who won victories together with his teams in the areas of "Petrochemistry" and "Mining machinery and equipment". 

Participation in the CASE-IN is a powerful career elevator that opens doors to leading companies in the fuel and energy complex, he is sure.: "After the victories, I visited one of SIBUR's key enterprises in Ufa, and also received several invitations for internships and job offers from partner companies of the championship - this is the best confirmation of the practical value of the solutions that we proposed. But then a decision was made in favor of postgraduate studies, upon admission to which the winner's diploma provided additional points and became a significant advantage. My choice in favor of science was largely predetermined after participating in the CASE-IN and other projects of the Presidential Platform "Russia – the land of Opportunities".

For a young person, CASE-IN is a real ecosystem of growth that goes far beyond academic competition. Thanks to the project, he has mastered a unique set of "flexible" skills that are difficult to acquire in a student audience.

 "I have improved my soft skills to the maximum level, learned how to quickly rally a diverse team, effectively distribute tasks and find consensus in the face of a tight deadline. But the main skill is the ability to "package" a complex technical idea into a convincing and vivid presentation for company management. At the university, they teach you how to solve problems, and CASE-IN teaches you how to sell these solutions, argue their value and defend your position in front of experts, which is especially valuable for a career. In 10 years, I see myself at the intersection of science, engineering and management, as someone who implements breakthrough developments in the real sector.", – shared it Dmitry Belov. 

In addition to solving cases, universities compete in the effectiveness of organizing and conducting regional competitions: the results are recorded in a separate rating, and the winners receive the Energy of Education award.

Another opportunity for educational organizations to confirm the high quality of student training and improve their positions in the rankings will be presented this spring as part of the XIV season of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. 

The qualifying stage will be held at the Tyumen Industrial University. March 19. Students will present solutions for the implementation of future technologies in the electric power industry, oil and gas industry, petrochemistry and project engineering, and the authors of the best ideas will continue to compete for the main prizes of the season. The winners of the qualifying competition will represent the region in the remote semi-finals.

The final of the CASE-IN championship will be held in Moscow at the end of May 2026. 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.

The organizers of the Championship are the Reliable Change Foundation, the Presidential Platform Russia – the Land of Opportunities, the Non-profit Partnership Youth Forum of Mining Leaders and AstraLogica LLC.  The project is included in the "Science to Win" initiative of the plan Decades of Science and Technology in Russia.
