Three Nizhny Novgorod University teams competed in the finals of the engineering CASE-IN championship

Three teams of Nizhny Novgorod State Technical University represented the university in the final of the Student League of the XIV International Engineering CASE-IN Championship, which was held at the NUST MISIS site. The tournament brought together more than 6,000 participants from Russia, CIS and BRICS countries. 208 teams from leading universities reached the final of the Student League.

The main theme of the competition was "Technologies of the future", and the tasks offered to the contestants were aimed at solving the problems of achieving the technological sovereignty of the country.

The CASE-IN Engineering Championship is a format in which students are faced not with academic tasks, but with real industry challenges. For companies, this is an opportunity to see young professionals in action, and for participants, to test themselves in conditions as close as possible to a professional environment.

R.E. Alekseev NSTU was represented at the main engineering review by three student teams at once: two from the Dzerzhinsky Polytechnic Institute (Department of Technological Equipment and Transport Systems) and a team from the Institute of Physico-Chemical Technologies and Materials Science of NSTU.

The finalists shared their impressions of the competition.

Nikita Goryunov A member of the Drive team, a student of the Dzerzhinsky Polytechnic Institute, noted: "Participation in the International CASE-IN Championship is an invaluable experience of strategic thinking and teamwork. Through communication with leading industry experts, I have deepened my applied knowledge. The organization of the event at the highest level allowed us to fully concentrate on solving problems, while receiving a lot of positive emotions from the professional competition."

Alexandra Rudikova, a student at IFHTiM NSTU named after R.E. Alekseev, emphasized: "The final CASE-IN was very useful for both professional and personal development. Our team presented a solution in the field of Petrochemistry and, following the results of the defense, received high-quality feedback from experts. In addition, we had the opportunity to exchange experiences with participants from top universities in Russia."

Reaching the finals of the CASE-IN championship for the teams of the R.E. Alekseev NSTU was the result of serious preparation, well-coordinated work at the qualifying stages and the support of mentors. This is not only a test of professional competencies, but also a unique experience of publicly defending projects in front of industry leaders, an opportunity to adopt best practices and make themselves known.

The CASE-IN International Engineering Championship, one of the largest intellectual Olympiads for students and young professionals, is held with the support of the country's leading industrial companies and is aimed at developing engineering thinking and developing practical competencies through solving real production problems.

The CASE-IN Championship is included in the Presidential Platform "Russia — the land of Opportunities" and is included in the plan of the Decade of Science and Technology in Russia.
