  • US Citizenship
    U.S. Citizenship Non-Precedent Decision of the and Immigration Administrative Appeals Office Services MATTER OF G-A-S-, INC. DATE: SEPT. 20, 2017 APPEAL OF NEBRASKA SERVICE CENTER DECISION PETITION: FORM I-140, IMMIGRANT PETITION FOR ALIEN WORKER The Petitioner, a production management services company, seeks to employ the Beneficiary as a senior quality assurance (QA) engineer. It requests classification of the Beneficiary as a member of the professions holding an advanced degree under the second preference immigrant classification. See Immigration and Nationality Act (the Act) section 203(b)(2), 8 U.S.C. § 1153(b)(2). This employment-based immigrant classification allows a U.S. employer to sponsor a professional with an advanced degree for lawful permanent resident status. The Director of the Nebraska Service Center denied the petition, concluding that the record did not establish that the Beneficiary holds a full U.S. baccalaureate or foreign equivalent degree, and that the Beneficiary does not have the five years of post -baccalaureate experience required for the offered job. On appeal, the Petitioner submits additional evidence and asserts that the Beneficiary's postgraduate diploma represents attainment of a level of education comparable to a bachelor's degree in the United States, and that the Beneficiary obtained the required five years of post-baccalaureate experience following completion of his diploma requirements. Upon de novo review, we will dismiss the appeal. I. PROCEDURAL HISTORY As required by statute, the petition is accompanied by an ETA Form 9089, Application for Permanent Employment Certification (labor certification), approved by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL).

  • Guidelines for Granting Docent Status
    UPPSALA UNIVERSITY GUIDELINES 11 June 2015 JURFAK 2015/49 Appendix 1 UPPSALA UNIVERSITY DECISION Board of the Faculty of Law 17 October 2013 (revised on 11 June 2015) Guidelines for granting docent status 1. Purpose of appointing docents at the Faculty of Law The purpose of granting the title or position of ‘docent’1 at the Faculty of Law is to clearly recognise a person’s special academic expertise. Docent status may be conferred if it may be beneficial to the research and education. A docent is required to be active in education at postgraduate (research) level in various ways, such as providing proficient supervision and undertaking the role of ‘opponent’ in disputations (public defences of PhD theses). Obtaining docent status therefore presupposes academic qualifications over and above a doctoral degree. Docent status may normally be conferred only in a subject in which education at postgraduate level is provided at the Faculty. A person who has gained docent status at another higher education institution may not be granted docent status in the same subject at the Faculty of Law in Uppsala. 2. Consultation A person wishing to be granted docent status is recommended first to raise the matter informally with the Chair of the Research Committee. The Chair must then consult one or more subject representatives on the matter. Advice not to continue does not constitute any formal impediment to proceeding with the application. 3. Conferral requirements for applicants lacking positions at the Faculty of Law If applicants have no permanent or time-limited appointment at the Faculty of Law, subject representatives must issue special statements of opinion regarding the manner in which the grant of docent status could benefit research and education at the Faculty.

  • Postgraduate Education in Europe Harmonising with a Dissonance?
    Sakari Ahola & Osmo Kivinen Postgraduate Education in Europe Harmonising with a dissonance? This presentation deals with the emerging European postgraduate policies and their larger EU-dimensions which have motivated the establishing of a co-operative network (PG-NET) of eight European countries. The focus is on the harmonisation of the European higher education scene, especially from the Finnish point of view. The ongoing Bologna process can be seen as an expression of the will to create a common higher education market in Europe in order to promote the free mobility of students and the labour force. In this respect the speculation taken furthest is that already in the near future the effort to maintain the distinction between universities and polytechnics will be given up. In this way Europe will probably follow in the footsteps of the US, and gradually move towards a three-phase model of higher education with abroad access and initial three-year programmes leading to the bachelor’s degree that provides advanced training but that are not closely linked with the world of academic research. In the next phase a smaller part will advance through selective procedures to the master’s level on which studies are also more closely connected with scientific work. Only at the post-master’s level leading to a doctorate will the humboldtian ideal of the integrated nexus of teaching, research and learning be attained. It is argued in the paper that this kind of a two (or three) tier structure would be suitable especially from the perspective of the European Graduate School model and beneficial also to the functioning of the Finnish higher education system with its special problem points.

  • The Phd and the Degree Structure of South African Higher Education: a Brief and Rough Guide
    The PhD and the degree structure of South African higher education: A brief and rough guide [Presented at the CHET seminar 'Knowledge Production in South African Higher Education' on 23 February 2012] While the PhD has come to be generally known as the highest qualification offered in higher education it by no means always has the same connotation or a universal significance. Depending on the historical trajectory and degree structure of the higher education system concerned the PhD can radically differ in content, status and function. Doctoral qualifications have a long history; significantly, though, the PhD was not always considered to be either the pinnacle or supreme benchmark of higher education. In the Oxbridge tradition of teaching universities, for example, the PhD long had a marginal function and a somewhat dubious status. The increasing prominence of the PhD was closely associated with the rise of the German and American model of the research university since the late 19th century. Even so, it should also be noted that European higher degree systems traditionally differentiated between two types of terminal qualifications: the ‘research doctorate’ as distinct from the (professional) Habilitation in Germany, the doctorandus (drs) as distinct from the doctor (dr) in the Netherlands, the different categories of (research) doctorates in France etc. On closer examination it also transpires that in the US, too, the research PhD or doctoral program is by no means the only trajectory to a terminal higher education qualification.

  • IQAS International Education Guide
    International Education Guide FOR THE ASSESSMENT OF EDUCATION FROM THE FORMER USSR AND THE RUSSIAN FEDERATION Welcome to the Alberta Government’s International Education Guides The International Qualifications Assessment Service (IQAS) developed the International Education Guides for educational institutions, employers and professional licensing bodies to help facilitate and streamline their decisions regarding the recognition of international credentials. These guides compare educational systems from around the world to educational standards in Canada. The assessment recommendations contained in the guides are based on extensive research and well documented standards and criteria. This research project, a first in Canada, is based on a broad range of international resources and considerable expertise within the IQAS program. Organizations can use these guides to make accurate and efficient decisions regarding the recognition of international credentials. The International Education Guides serve as a resource comparing Alberta standards with those of other countries, and will assist all those who need to make informed decisions, including: • employers who need to know whether an applicant with international credentials meets the educational requirements for a job, and how to obtain information comparing the applicant’s credentials to educational standards in Alberta and Canada • educational institutions that need to make a decision about whether a prospective student meets the education requirements for admission, and who need to find accurate and reliable information about the educational system of another country • professional licensing bodies that need to know whether an applicant meets the educational standards for licensing bodies The guides include a country overview, a historical educational overview, and descriptions of school education, higher education, professional/technical/vocational education, teacher education, grading scales, documentation for educational credentials and a bibliography.

  • Translating Degrees and Academic Titles Abbreviations: Challenges and Perspectives
    Slađana Milinković TRANSLATING DEGREES AND ACADEMIC TITLES ABBREVIATIONS: CHALLENGES AND PERSPECTIVES SLAĐANA MILINKOVIĆ Th e Court Interpreters and Translators Association of Serbia E-mail: [email protected] Egyetemi fokozatok és tudományos címek rövidítéseinek fordítása: kihívások és perspektí- vák. Az ember társas lény, ezért természetes szükséglete a kommunikáció. Az emberi kommuni- káció fontosságát már évezredekkel ezelőtt felismerték, és gyökerei sokkal messzebbre nyúlnak vissza, mint amiről az írott történelem beszámol. Az emberi kommunikáció alapja az együttmű- ködés és a közös szándék, ahogy azt az antroposzemiotika is tanítja. Idáig azonban hosszú utat kellett bejárni. „Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος”,1 tanítja a Biblia, de az igét meg kell hallgatni, és terjeszteni kell. Minél messzebbre kellett eljutnia, annál fontosabb volt, hogy valamilyen módon lejegyezzék. És az em- ber másik természetes szükséglete, hogy nyomot hagyjon a világban – valamilyen képpel, szám- mal vagy betűvel. Nézzük meg röviden ennek a történetét. Kulcsszavak: latin nyelvű oklevelek, egyetemi fokozatok fordítása, tudományos címek rövidítése, bírósági tolmácsolás, a terminológia alakulása Since man is a social being, one of his innate needs is the desire to communicate. Th e importance of human communication has been recognised for thousands of years, far longer than demonstrated through recorded history. Human communication is rooted in cooperative and shared intentions, as anthroposemiotics teaches us. But it was a long road to get us here. “Ἐν ἀρχῇ ἦν ὁ λόγος”, the Bible has taught us, but it has to be heard and spread. Th e further it needed to go, the greater was the need to record it in some way. And the second man’s innate need was to make a mark in the world – with a picture of some kind, a certain sign, numeral or letter.
