No, CS degrees are designed to teach computer science. That's sort of vaguely related to "practical programming." Software engineering the way it's done in most companies is almost nothing like computer science and very much like a trade. The real problem is that programming trade schools are viewed as "below" a CS degree rather than a more directly applicable training/education.
