North America Immigration Law Group – WeGreened.com represented an Assistant Research Scientist in Texas in the field of Transportation Systems Engineering. His work has focused specifically on the development of novel approaches for optimizing highway expansion and applying environmental parameters to problems of network design. In addition, he has shown applications for large-size real city networks in his original research papers, and has explicitly modeled demand uncertainty for heterogeneous traffic conditions. In order for our client’s case to be successful, we submitted extensive documentation proving his highly significant contributions to Transportation Systems Engineering, including 7 peer-reviewed journal articles, and numerous conference papers and presentations. His publications had been cited at least 82 times at the time we filed the case; nearly all of the citations were by independent researchers around the world, demonstrating that these publications are widely recognized and relied upon in the field. He had also conducted more than 100 manuscript reviews for 12 distinctive, internationally circulated journals. As stated by one independent recommender, “Advancements in the field of transportation systems engineering are vital to overcoming the transportation problems faced in the world today. The innovations developed by [client] are vital to the prosperity of the United States' transportation system and, through this, its economy and healthcare.” Through extensive documentation, we were able to successfully argue that our client would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience.
