Last year, 8,156 people from 34 regions took part in the international engineering CASE-IN championship, said Alexey Komissarov, CEO of ANO Russia – Land of Opportunities.

He stated this at a press conference dedicated to the start of the new season of the championship.

"There were new opportunities to participate last season. 19 universities add USE scores to students, and six more universities offer special conditions for admission to graduate and postgraduate studies, sometimes even without exams. Young professionals will fall into a separate category of winners, they will be included in the personnel reserve for engineering specialties," Komissarov said.

The International Engineering CASE-IN Championship is an international competition system for solving engineering cases for schoolchildren, students and young specialists in the fuel and energy and mineral resource complexes.

The project is part of the Russia – Land of Opportunity platform and is being implemented in accordance with the Action Plan aimed at popularizing the working and Engineering professions, approved by the decree of the Government of the Russian Federation dated March 5, 2015.

Since 2018, the championship has been held using a grant from the President of the Russian Federation for the development of civil society provided by the Presidential Grants Fund.
