Omsk Polytechnic University has identified the best young power engineers

Omsk Polytechnic University hosted the qualifying stage of the XIV season of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship. Following the results of the competition, two university teams won prizes, and the winning team, Lyubov, will represent the university in the semifinals.

The participants had to defend their solutions to the complex engineering task of ensuring energy security in the face of growing cyber and information threats to the electric grid infrastructure. The teams analyzed threats, assessed risks, and proposed and justified technological and organizational measures to protect the network. Tasks that are close to real production conditions have traditionally been prepared with the support of key industry partners of the championship.

The teams demonstrated to the jury not only the depth of engineering, but also the presentation skills of complex technical structures. The expert commission included representatives of relevant enterprises, leading industry experts and teachers of the main university in the region.

The seats were distributed as follows:

The 1st place went to the Lyubov team, consisting of students of the OmSTU Energy Institute Evelina Dobrotvorskaya, Alina Yemelyanova, Vlada Denisova and Daria Gusak.
The Heavyside team, which included undergraduates and postgraduates from the OmSTU Energy Institute Konstantin Myakota, Denis Schellenberg and Kirill Shcherbakov, took 2nd place.
The 3rd place went to the Sharks of Energy team from Ugra State University.
