Our NIW candidate is a researcher from Nepal with an M.S. in civil engineering who is planning to continue his research on combining traditional practices with state-of-the-art remote sensing and geographical information system techniques to develop a sustainable and resilient asset management plan for aging geotechnical and transportation infrastructure. After a thorough investigation into our client’s background, we found that our client’s research would be of great national interest to the United States, and also that our client has proven expertise in the field of civil engineering and his proposed endeavor has applications in the advancement of artificial intelligence, which is a field that is considered a critical and emerging technology in the eyes of the USCIS.

Our client also has a proven academic record, having published 1 first-authored peer-reviewed journal article and 7 peer-reviewed conference papers (2 of them first-authored). His work has also additionally been cited 31 times, and our client has also been invited to participate in the peer-review process 11 times. To be invited to judge the work of experts is an indication of a scholar’s reliability in the field. His civil engineering research developing sustainable and resilient asset management plans for aging geotechnical and transportation infrastructure helps address the problem of vulnerable infrastructure in a variety of contexts, implementing modern technologies like remote sensing and geographical information systems (GIS) to provide near real-time data, allowing for effective asset monitoring, better prioritization of asset maintenance plans, and overall optimization of assets’ health. Lastly, our client had also received recommendations from 4 different experts within his field from around the world, showing his influence and renown.
