Concern over attracting international students and retaining them after graduation has been top of mind for many U.S. academics and research/tech businesses. Good news was found in a recent study by the National Bureau of Economic Research. The study found that talented international STEM graduates are more interested in academic positions and that they prefer to stay in the U.S. for post-docs and employment.
The National Bureau study is contradicted by a decline in the number of international students seeking post-graduate work in the U.S. The number of applications increased by 34% in 2016 but slowed to an 8% increase in 2017.
