Pathway Agreement

Maricopa Community College District
Computer Systems Engineering (Cybersecurity), BSE Pathway
2021-2022
Pathway Notes
Minimum 2.0 GPA in coursework used to satisfy MAPP requirements. All courses must be completed with a grade of C or greater. Some ASU programs may have higher GPA and grade requirements. Please see special requirements below for details.
Special Requirements

Completion of the Maricopa to ASU Engineering Pathway and all special requirements meets ASU major map requirements and guarantees admission to the Computer Systems Engineering (Cybersecurity) BSE degree program.

A 3.0 transfer GPA as calculated by ASU for admissions is required. All courses must be completed with a grade of "C" or better.

Engineering Core courses should be prioritized over Additional Lower Division Requirements.

Note: Only 64 credit hours are transferable to ASU from a community college. Completion of the Engineering Core is the most efficient transfer pathway to this bachelor's degree, but does not meet all requirements for an associate degree. Students who wish to complete an associate degree prior to transferring to ASU should consult an academic advisor to discuss the additional courses required.
