“The Director, Nebraska Service Center, denied the petition, concluding that the Beneficiary was not internationally recognized as outstanding in his particular academic field of computer science. The matter is now before us on certification. The Petitioner provided a brief and copies of research articles that cite to the Beneficiary's scholarly works, and maintains that the record reflects that he is internationally recognized as outstanding in his field. Upon de novo review, we will withdraw the initial decision of the Director, and approve the petition.”
