Cyber Engineering Degree Plan
The student would complete the Associate of Science in Engineering - Electrical Engineering Track taking four core curriculum courses from the list above and taking ENGR 2406, Introduction to Digital Systems in place of MATH 2415, Calculus III (which is not required in the CYEN degree plan at HCU).
The student also would need to take COSC 2353, Operating Systems, from HCU during Semester 4. The price for Blinn students to take COSC 2353 from HCU during Semester 4 is set at $550, with no additional fees.

Even though there are some classes where the number of hours is not equivalent, the total number of hours for the first two years are equivalent.
This student would then transfer to HCU ready to begin his/her junior year, still needing to take two Liberal Arts Core Classes (LACC) at HCU, along with GOVT 2312 and HIST 2311, for which there are no equivalent classes at Blinn. The requirement for FYS 1300 is waived for students who have completed more than 32 hours. Students transferring to HCU with 45 hours or more are only required to take CHRI 3300 as opposed to taking CHRI 1301 and CHR 23 73, thus reducing the number of hours in the degree plan from 125 to 122.
The Blinn degree plan include several classes that can be selected from the list of Core Curriculum Courses. The current courses from this list that are already included in the TCCNS articulation matrix are the following:
