That's why there's ABET.
They not only accredit, but classify.

If you've had engineering analysis (statics/dynamics) and
thermodynamics, then you've probably had an engineering core.

So even if your degree only says CS, don't be surprised if the
ABET has accredited as a BSCSE, and you are eligiable to be
licensed as such.
