Decision Summary
The appeal was sustained because the Director erred in their analysis, incorrectly concluding that the required degree fields were too broad and failing to properly analyze the position's duties. The AAO found the position's duties are so specialized and complex that the knowledge required to perform them is usually associated with a bachelor's degree in a specific specialty. The petitioner met the regulatory requirements under 8 C.F.R. § 214.2(h)(4)(iii)(A)(4).
