International Students and Scholars: Powerful Stimulus for a Dynamic Economy

We invite you join us for a special program on Thursday, May 11 to understand the pivotal role played by international students and scholars in New Jersey’s economy, including their ability to incubate new technologies and establish job-creating enterprises.

You will learn how other countries are now competing against the U.S. in attracting these students and what policy changes have to be made to maintain American leadership in this area, including creating greater opportunities for international students to transition to permanent residence.

National experts in this area will share their knowledge and insights, and representatives from New Jersey colleges and Universities will discuss how they are working to attract international students and the barriers they have had to overcome.

This program is brought to you by the Garden State Immigration Policy Institute, a joint project of NJBIA and the New Jersey Business Immigration Coalition.
