Students from SamSTU became the winners of the International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN"

The final The International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" It became a grandiose intellectual battle and the largest youth engineering competition of 2018: it was preceded by qualifying stages at 55 leading technical universities in Russia and three CIS countries. This year, the participants of the "CASE-IN" were united by the theme "Arctic Development". More than 500 future engineers from 50 regions of Russia, as well as from Belarus, Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan competed for victory in the final.

Samara Polytechnic University was represented by 4 teams in the final: "The method of scientific poking" (Petrochemistry), «Red Star» ("geological exploration"), "Num Quarat" ("oil and gas business"), "Systems and networks" ("Electric power industry"). The participants had to propose engineering solutions to the problems of Arctic development in the following areas: "geological exploration", "oil and gas business", "petrochemistry" and "Electric power industry". It is specified that the teams received their assignments 10 days before the final. Their work was evaluated by representatives of partner companies of the championship: JSC "SO UES", OOO "Transneftenergo", PJSC NK Rosneft", PJSC SIBUR Holding and others.

As a result, the team of our university "The method of scientific poking" (as part of the students – Vladimir Yemelyanov, Andrey Kruk and Olga Repina She took the second place in the final of the International Engineering CASE-IN Championship in the new direction of the Petrochemistry Student League, partnered by SIBUR, Russia's largest petrochemical holding company.

In the final, they had to develop a concept for the sustainable development of SIBUR, which was a strategic partner of the company, allowing for high growth in production volumes while simultaneously addressing environmental and social challenges. The participants also had to pay attention to the technological development of the company's production processes, introduce new energy-saving and environmentally oriented technological schemes of production processes, while ensuring high dynamics of the company's economic performance.

The championship is included in the List of all-Russian youth events aimed at popularizing the fuel and energy complex, energy conservation and engineering education for 2018. The organizers of the championship − Reliable Change Foundation, Non-profit Partnership "Youth Forum of Mining Leaders" and AstraLogica LLC. The co-organizer of the Electric Power Industry direction is the Association "Russian National Committee of the International Council for Large High Voltage Electrical Systems".
