On March 20, Khabarovsk Pacific State University hosted the qualifying stage of the Student League of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN". The university's students, future engineers of fuel and energy and mineral resources complexes, offered their solutions on the topic of "Arctic development". Khabarovsk Krai Segodnya News Agency. The winners will go to the finals in Moscow.

In order to get a ticket to the finals, the teams had to solve an engineering case, a practical task based on an actual production problem.

The participants were given 10 days to work on the project. It was proposed to analyze the climatic, infrastructural, mining and geological conditions and propose a project concept for the development of the Kholodny coal mine.

The contestants had to be offered an effective system for working off the reserves of the mine and a set of facilities necessary for the operation of the enterprise. The main difficulty was also that it was necessary to calculate all the costs that would be necessary for the implementation of this project, as well as to find sources of financing. In general, the assignment was based on real problems and required real solutions.

The work of the teams (there were 13 in total) was evaluated by mining experts. Rubicon team got a ticket to the finals: Fedor Vasilchenko, Kristina Skryleva, Irina Smirnova and Gleb Sir.

- We believe that today's winning team will adequately show itself, the university and the city at the championship in Moscow. Of course, we expect to win, yes, there will be another case, even more difficult. But the potential that the guys have shown today is quite high," said the Vice-rector for Research at TOGU. Igor Pugachev.
