"Looking" at them in excel is why the numbers are converted to the scientific notation that was posted... Again, this is not something that was done in EP4. EP4 generates the CSV file that was downloaded. If it is looked at with your favorite plain text editor just after download and before ever being edited with Excel or Open Office then will see the number(s) in their entirety and not shortened.

There are plenty of ways to request that numbers be treated as text when either importing a file or reviewing the content.
