On July 12, 2023, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) published a <\/span>Federal Register<\/span><\/a> notice announcing the addition of eight Classification of Instructional Programs (CIP) codes to the DHS STEM Designated Degree Program List.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The <\/span>DHS STEM Designated Degree Program List<\/span><\/a> are fields of study that DHS considers to be science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) for the purpose of the 24-month STEM optional practical training (OPT) extension. For more information on STEM OPT extension, see the STEM OPT Extension sections available on the <\/span>ISS website\u2019s OPT<\/span><\/a> pages.<\/span><\/p>\n

Each program of study at a university has its own CIP code. Find your CIP code on the first page of your Form I-20. Look at the Program of Study section, Major 1. The numerical code is next to your major and uses the format XX.XXXX<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have any additional questions please schedule an <\/span>appointment<\/span><\/a> to speak with an ISS Advisor.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
