National Arctic Scientific and Educational Consortium to support "CASE-IN"

National Arctic Scientific and Educational Consortium Association will become a partner The International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN». In Student League competitions «CASE-IN» Nine universities of the Consortium will participate.

The purpose of the National Arctic Scientific and Educational Consortium (NANOC) − creation of a common scientific and educational space that provides high-quality information and analytical support for development projects in the Arctic region of Russia.

In the 2018 season, NANOK will become an information partner of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN", an international competition system for solving engineering cases among schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fuel and energy and mineral resource industries.

Welcoming the participants of the "CASE-IN", Chairman of the Consortium, Rector of the Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M. V. Lomonosov Elena Kudryashova underlined:

"Modern high-tech solutions and non-standard proposals for the implementation of national Arctic projects are needed to explore and develop these extraordinarily beautiful, rich in natural resources, but very fragile and vulnerable territories.

I am sure that the CASE-IN International Engineering Championship will make a great contribution to the sustainable development of the Russian Arctic. We believe in you – young, energetic, purposeful! We are waiting for interesting solutions and initiatives from you, and we wish you victory!"

Nine member universities of the Consortium will participate in the CASE-IN Student League: Far Eastern Federal University, National Research Tomsk State University, Novosibirsk State Technical University, Northern (Arctic) Federal University named after M. V. Lomonosov, Northeastern Federal University named after M.K. Ammosov, Siberian Federal University, Tyumen Industrial University, Ural Federal University named after the first President of Russia B. N. Yeltsin, Ufa State Petroleum Technical University.

It is planned that during the CASE-IN qualifying stage, a Memorandum of Cooperation between the Consortium and the CASE-IN organizer will be signed at the NArFU site Reliable Shift Foundation.
