That's fine, but I think that the parent was responding to this:

> ABET (the engineering accreditation society in the US), doesn't have "Software Engineering" as a valid discipline.

Which can be true or false independently of how meaningful the title is.

The Computer Engineering degree I have is from an ABET program, it was pretty even on CS/EE. No regrets, except for the times the hardware guys act like I'm just a software guy and the software guys act like I don't know anything about software because I'm a hardware guy. XD
