No. First, because the variety of curriculum in computer science doesn't have a hell of a lot to do with "engineering"--automata, algorithms, artificial intelligence, statistics, etc. It's more academic, and that's what makes it useful when this year's framework of choice goes out of style. Second, because "software engineering" is kind of a huge joke when compared with other, more traditional forms of engineering--and that's okay. There is no meaningful set of accreditation procedures, working vocabulary varies widely, and so on. Third, there are other forms of engineering that are actually closer to "engineer" with computers--electrical engineering and computer engineering. Last, because it'll decrease your viability due to branding issues when dating. ;)
