Re: Software Engineering Majors

At some schools, software engineering may be the same thing as computer science at another school. Other schools may place a much greater emphasis on process and how to manage complex software projects and call that software engineering, while having a separate computer science degree that is more heavily dependent on algorithms and coding. Make sure you understand what you want.

Here's RIT's program descriptions for software engineering and computer science so you can compare.
