Decision Summary
The appeal was dismissed because the petitioner, although qualifying as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree, failed to establish eligibility for a national interest waiver. The Director, and subsequently the AAO, found that the petitioner did not demonstrate that his proposed endeavor in MEMS research had substantial merit and national importance, a key prong of the Dhanasar framework.
Criteria Discussed
