In a move to enhance US economic competitiveness, the State Department in February extended the period for visa security clearances for non-US citizens working in "sensitive areas," such as chemistry, pharmacology, and engineering. In the past, students and scientists had been required to renew their visas each year. Now, students can remain in the United States for four years, working scientists for two years, and visiting scientists for one year before renewing security clearances.
