Without cybersecurity knowledge, thesolutions engineers create can open doors for hackers to manipulate systems, machinery, orobjects for their benefit. This creates a need to design and integrate CIE content into engineeringundergraduate programs.This paper presents a preliminary course syllabus design

The first is a multi-scaleframework based on Activity Theory, incorporating three scales. In relation to design theory andmethodology, the macro scale corresponds to design stages, focusing on design goals, while themicro scale describes design actions in delivering projects such as applying design methods.Situated between these, the meso scale uses design tasks mediate between macro-scale
