Case Summary:

With a Ph.D. in industrial engineering/operations research and fundamental research experience, undoubtedly, our client possesses the ability to advance in the field of industrial engineering. When he contacted our law firm to file an I-140 NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition on his behalf, we examined more into his degrees and diplomas, and after thoroughly evaluating his credentials, we established that we would lead him to NIW success and countersigned the retainer agreement.

We intended to prove that he is an essential researcher in his field; therefore, we added essential attributes to his NIW (National Interest Waiver) petition packet. We noted that his work:

Cited 214 times by dependent and independent researchers, demonstrating that his publications are widely recognized and relied upon in his chosen field.
His contributions to peer-reviewed conference articles resulted in 7 peer-reviewed journal articles (6 of them first-authored) and 3 peer-reviewed conference articles (2 of them first-authored).
He has completed at least 23 reviews to date.

Moreover, our client’s proposed endeavor is to continue his research on developing state-of-the-art techniques and solutions for identifying efficient production and supply chain decisions to improve the operational efficiency of business supply chains and operations networks around the world. Specifically, he will collect business requirements, identify pain points and opportunities, build optimization and machine learning models, communicate insights and scientific results with fellow leaders in the field, and publish original industrial engineering research in peer-reviewed journals and conferences.

Additionally, research advancing his proposed endeavor is of great importance because it enhances global supply chains and operations networks.

To bolster our client’s case further, we added recommendation letters signed by four other expert scholars in the field.

Thus, our client’s education, experience, expertise, record of publication and citation, and history of successful research in the field all indicate that he is well-positioned to advance the proposed endeavor. We are pleased that our efforts and hard work, in this case, paid off well in proving that our client’s major contributions in his field of expertise make him an invaluable asset to the United States, thus, he received his NIW (National Interest Waiver) approval in 7 days. Therefore, we thank him for choosing the North America Immigration Law Group to represent his case and wish him very well as he continues to advance in his proposed field.
