"Mountain scouts" from Vladivostok became the bronze medalists of the CASE-IN Championship

Mountain Scouts is a team of students from the Far Eastern Federal University, which won bronze medals at the Final of the VI The International Engineering Championship "CASE-IN" in Moscow.

The competition was dedicated to the theme "Arctic Development" and brought together 500 students from 55 leading technical universities in Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan and the Kyrgyz Republic. The finalists presented to the expert community of the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes their ideas for the development of the Arctic region of Russia in six areas: geological exploration, mining, metallurgy, oil and gas, petrochemistry and electric power industry.Pacific Russia", Toross.

Team Far Eastern Federal University Mountain Scouts − Captain Dmitry Shcheglov and his colleagues Vitaly Rybnikov, Olga Kalinicheva and Grigory Grishin – we won the qualifying stage of the VI International Engineering CASE-IN Championship at our university and won the right to represent our native university at the final competitions in the field "Geological exploration" Student League "CASE-IN" in Moscow.

At the "CASE-IN" finals, the team FEFU She was successful, passing only representatives of the Ural State Mining University and St. Petersburg Mining University ahead: by the decision of the expert commission, the Mining Scouts were awarded the honorable third place and awarded the bronze medals of the Championship.

During the Final, in accordance with the engineering case "Treasures of the Arctic", future geologists analyzed the conditions of the gold and silver deposit in the territory of the Chukotka Autonomous Okrug, developed a draft exploration work to calculate reserves and assessed the economic efficiency of the project.

The team's decision was appreciated by the heads and specialists of leading exploration companies and organizations such as JSC "Rosgeologiya", Institute of Mineralogy, Geochemistry and Crystal Chemistry of Rare Elements, Russian Geological Society, N.M. Fedorovsky All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Mineral Raw Materials, LLC "Dassault System Geovia RUS", OOO "Transneftenergo", MICROMINE Russia, JSC "Central PGO" JSC "Rosgeologiya", NUC "Mineral Resources" LLC, JSC "MHC "Eurochem", OAO Krasnodarneftegeofizika, JSC NPC Nedra and others.

As part of the Final, future specialists also participated in a closed Career Day for the CASE-IN finalists and met with leading employers in the Russian exploration industry, where they received internship offers.

The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is the largest practice-oriented competition in Russia and the CIS countries for solving engineering cases among university students, schoolchildren and young professionals. The final of the Championship was preceded by qualifying stages at 55 leading technical universities in Russia and three CIS countries. 5,000 future engineers participated in the project in 2018, and more than 1,000 representatives of the Fuel and energy Complex and the Moscow Energy Complex of Russia acted as experts.

Representatives of the Ministry of Education and Science of the Russian Federation, the Ministry of the Russian Federation for the Development of the Far East, the Federal Agency for Youth Affairs, the Russian Independent Trade Union of Coal Industry Workers (Rosugleprof), and the Russian National Committee of the International Council for Large High-Voltage Electrical Systems participated in awarding the winners.

The organizers of the Championship − Reliable Change Foundation, Non-profit partnership "Youth Forum of Mining Leaders" and LLC "AstraLogica". 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".
