During an event at the Council on Foreign Relations, US Deputy Secretary of State Kurt Campbell stated that while the US should welcome more Chinese students, it should only encourage them to study humanities, with science disciplines reserved for Indian students. This decision is influenced by security concerns, with US universities now being more cautious about Chinese students pursuing sensitive technologies. Campbell highlighted the need for more international students in science, technology, engineering, and math, emphasizing Indian students over Chinese students. The ongoing deterioration of US-China relations and suspicions over intellectual property theft have led to increased scrutiny of Chinese students' activities in the US.
