Didgerators can handle difficult tasks.

In February 2019, at LGTU specifically to participate in the qualifying stage the international engineering championship "Case-in" The Digerati team was created in the Metallurgy league.

A WELL-DESERVED VICTORY

And already in May, the Polytechnic digerators (the elite of the computer industry and online communities, uniting well-known computer scientists, technology publishers and bloggers. – Author's note) celebrated the victory at the final competitions in Moscow. By the way, they are held among talented students and postgraduates of universities in Russia and the CIS countries and are designed to popularize working and engineering specialties. 

– At our university the "CASE-IN" championship special attention is paid. It has become an integral element of the educational process not only for students studying Metallurgy, but also for future power engineers, economists, and information technology specialists. The composition of the winning team confirms this as well as possible- says the rector of LGTU Pavel Saraev.

Such victories are not easy. The successful performance of Lipchan was preceded by serious training under the guidance of Associate Professor of the Department of Metallurgical Technologies Anton Karpov. NLMK specialists also worked with the guys.

UNITY IS OUR STRENGTH.

The team solved complex practical tasks related to the wear of the rolls of the finishing stands of the hot rolled sheet steel mill. The proposed solutions increased the energy efficiency of the main technological process and were economically beneficial.

Each member of the team has contributed to the common cause. Ekaterina Pleshkova worked on the presentation design. Ekaterina Zvereva was responsible for the economic part. Alexander Zakharov has created a special program to simplify calculations. Anastasia Ryzhenkova, the captain of Digerati, supervised the deadline for completing assignments, assigned roles to the team, and handled organizational issues. In her opinion, the DJs were able to become the first in their field thanks to perseverance (they practiced for 12 hours a day), interest in completing the task of the case, responsibility of the team members and their desire to win.

– This year, 540 future engineers and young specialists from 60 regions of Russia, Belarus and Kazakhstan participated in the final. They presented their ideas on digitalization of fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes to the expert community.

The composition of the Digerati team:

1. Team Captain: Anastasia Ryzhenkova – 2nd year graduate student of the Metallurgical Institute in the field of Metallurgy.

2. Ekaterina Pleshkova – 4th year undergraduate student at the Faculty of Physics and Technology, specializing in Industrial Thermal Power Engineering.

3. Ekaterina Zvereva – 4th year undergraduate student at the Faculty of Economics, specializing in Economics and Enterprise Management.

4. Alexander Zakharov – 2nd year Master's degree student at the Faculty of Automation and Computer Science in the field of Computer Science and Computer Engineering.
