Do aviation degree's fall under STEM?
Hi Everyone
Im currently an international student studying commercial aviation at the University of North Dakota. The degree I am getting is a bachelor of Science in Aeronautics.
I was not under the impression that this degree at first fell under the listed STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering , Math) programs. But when I google this, there seems to be some programs recently added.
94 STEM Degree Programs added to 17 month OPT Extension by DHS
Number 78 on the list (49.0101)
Does this mean that I can apply for additional working time on an F-1 after my initial 12 months opt. Totaling I can work for 2 and a half years as an instructor building hours in the U.S (If I actually do get employment) before having to go home?
