They plan to figure out how years 3 and 4 of the curriculum will work at some point down the road.

The problem is that engineering cannot be done online. Engineering is hands on and collaborative.

It would be an LSU A&M degree, and the students would have to pay LSU A&M tuition and fees.
They're probably assuming that LSUS will collapse within a year or two which would make the 3rd and 4th years of the PetroEngineering curriculum useless. I thought the LSUS students couldn't afford to pay the Louisiana Tech tuition rates. Isn't LSU-BR more expensive than LA Tech?
