PNRPU students have proposed the best engineering solutions for the Arctic region of Russia

For the fourth year in a row, Perm National Research Polytechnic University has hosted the Case-in Championship, the largest practice—oriented competition in Russia and the CIS countries for solving engineering cases. This year, polytechnics competed in 5 leagues: "Mining", "Metallurgy", "Oil and gas business", "Petrochemistry" and "Electric Power Industry".

Director of the Reliable Change Foundation, Co-chairman of the Organizing Committee of the CASE-IN Championship Artem Korolev Opening the qualifying stage, he noted that The main value of the project is the student participants, whose interest has allowed the Championship to grow to an international level..

Head of the PNRPU Department of Science and Innovation Dmitry Trushnikov He emphasized the practical importance of the Championship for the interaction of employers and future specialists.

The CASE-IN Championship has gone a long way from a mini-competition to a global international event. For comparison, the first championship consisted of 11 qualifying stages, while the current one consists of 111. In 2015, the "Case-in" was included in the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation on popularization of engineering specialties. Today, the project already has about 70 written cases. The geography of the Championship is actively expanding. This year, the event covered about 50 universities in Russia and 10 CIS countries.

The Championship was held at Perm Polytechnic University with the support of The Council of Young Scientists and Specialists of PNRPU, JSC "MHC "EuroChem", JSC "SIBUR-Khimprom", Mining and Petroleum, Mechanical Engineering and Electrotechnical Faculties of PNRPU and the Ministry of Education and Science of the Perm Region.

This year, students of Perm Polytechnic University solved an engineering case on the development of the Arctic. The decisions of the polytechnics were evaluated by an expert commission consisting of university professors and invited specialists from leading industrial enterprises in the mining, oil and gas and energy sectors of the region.

— The number of Championship leagues held at our university is increasing every year. This year, the Petrochemistry League was held for the first time. Every year, more and more partner enterprises, government representatives and the Council of Young Scientists and Specialists of PNRPU and the Perm Region participate in the work of each of the areas. For the second year in a row, teams from the Ural State Mining University (Yekaterinburg) have been coming to the Oil and Gas Business League. We plan to further improve and raise the level of the event., — the organizer of the qualifying stage of the Championship, a graduate student of the RMPI Department, a member of the PNRPU Council of Young Scientists and Specialists, noted Elena Lukyanets.
