Curious when your recollection starts. I remember when I was looking at schools (~1990) many schools didn't even have a separate computer science degree, much less software engineering. Often it was a sub-degree in the math department. OTOH I'm pretty sure 'software engineer' as a title was already well under way by then.

Around 2003, when I graduated. For what its worth, our computer science department was a part of the math department when I first went there, but got moved to the science department halfway through. Maybe it was just the jobs I was looking at. They all had "programmer" or "developer" in the title. But it was around when programmer started becoming bad, and over the next 4 or so years they all started morphing into "engineer".

When I started undergrad in 1996 CS was pretty common.
