Is 'computer software development' same as 'computer software engineer'?

why do some colleges don't prefer to type 'computer software engineer' instead of 'computer software engineer?





and do i have to take 'computer science' as my major to become a computer software engineer?

Pretty much, yes. Sometimes companies refer to SW development as the process for creating and releasing SW products (aka, product life cycle management, water fall process, agile development, etc.). This job can be called Engineering, Development, Research and Development (R%26amp;D), or Coding. Most companies expect some technical training or a CS major for this type of job.
Reply:I consider a software deleper as a programmer that works more with windows applications and web applications. A software engineer deals with hardware programming, instrument programming, etc.
