The largest engineering case–solving competitions are held annually in Russia and the CIS countries to identify and further support talented students - future specialists in the most important sectors of the economy. This year in Krasnoyarsk, the cases were solved by representatives of three areas: "Electric power industry", "Mining" and "Oil and gas business". 



In the field of "Electric Power Engineering", students of the Electrotechnical profile of the Polytechnic Institute of Siberian Federal University demonstrated their knowledge and willingness to put it into practice. The participants were divided into 5 teams. They needed to solve a case study: to propose specific practical tasks to improve the reliability of the power supply system in one of the remote regions of the Russian Federation. Each team investigated the situation based on figures and statistics that were close to reality, understood the essence of the problems, and presented their proposals. 

Experts determined the value, novelty, economic validity of solutions, relevance of technologies, asked clarifying questions, and made recommendations.

I believe that holding such events and the participation of large energy companies in them allow students to gain invaluable experience and receive feedback from specialists working in the industry. And companies should identify those guys who can become valuable personnel.", - He said. 



The first place was taken by the "Generation of the Future" team. These guys will go to the "CASE-IN–2018" finals in Moscow, where the strongest will gather.
