- adamgravitis 13y agoThis depends on the university. At UofT, for example, "software engineering" is actually taught outside of the engineering faculty, and is not CEAB approved... and therefore doesn't qualify.
- abhinavg 13y agoActually, Computer Engineering is taught by the Engineering faculty at UofT. Software Engineering is still a specialization under the Computer Science degree, and is taught by the Arts & Science faculty.
- efferifick 13y agoSorry, I study at the UofA and we have a "software option" within the Computer Engineering program. Students graduating from this branch will get the iron ring. I just assumed that Software Engineers elsewhere got them too.
- grumps 13y agoYes, at MST/UMR the Comp Sci degree isn't applicable to engineering. I don't recall if computer engineering is/was because it's taught by the EE staff and Comp Sci staff. Even if you had an engineering degree you still didn't get the ring. I believe you had to go to some sort of ethics classes before we'd be given the opportunity to purchase the ring.
- charlesju 13y agoCS at UCLA gets them :)
