Can only speak for German degrees and while the first part of your answer is correct in spirit, the second one is kinda off. You can have the exact same curriculum and be called engineer or not be called engineer, depending on the university. You can even learn nothing related to engineering and have an engineer title, or the other way round. I'm not saying you're wrong (especially the first part), but there's a lot more to it, especially in countries where 'engineer' is a protected name/profession. Personal opinion: I don't care. My degree is "Computer Science", not "Computer or Software Engineering" and I see myself as a Software Developer (although I will allow programmer)
