What kind of major is convenient for American immigrants to get green cards?

There is a striking content in the immigration reform plan issued by the White House: the green card is directly nailed to the doctoral and master's degree certificates in science, technology, engineering, mathematics and other fields. Anyone who has obtained the above-mentioned degree in science and engineering from a qualified university in the United States and found a job in the United States can apply for a green card directly without having to apply for a work visa first, thus speeding up the process of obtaining a green card.

The American government STEM program is a program to encourage students to major in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM), and continuously increase investment in science, technology, engineering and mathematics education to cultivate students' scientific and technological literacy.

Natural sciences: biology, life sciences, chemistry, geology, geophysics, physics and astronomy;

Engineering: aviation, aerospace engineering, architecture, environmental design, chemical engineering, civil engineering, computer system engineering;

Technology: computer science, data and information processing, electrical machinery, electronic engineering technology, production technology, mechanical engineering technology;

Math: Math, statistics.

According to the current education policy of American universities, international students studying in these four categories in the United States can enjoy 29 months of OPT program time after graduation in the United States, which is 17 months longer than other major categories. This means that you have more opportunities to find a job in America after graduation.

Students who are interested in science and engineering can choose the popular STEM major and enjoy many benefits brought by the favorable immigration policy in the United States.
