There is an 'engineer' category, so if you have a degree that says 'software engineer' (which are about 5-10 classes shy of a CS degree usually) you can use it.

There is an 'engineer' category, so if you have a degree that says 'software engineer' (which are about 5-10 classes shy of a CS degree usually) you can use it. They have this artificial distinction between programmer and software engineer where you make or design new code or just modify existing code so lawyers are still required and there is the 'Computer Systems Analyst' that seems to always imply a need for a degree that says Computers in it.
