The search was obviously constructed to come up with no results. Well, not obvious to everyone I guess. Looks like some people are new to internet humor.

I'm impressed that you passed on the Ranier Wolfcastle gif.

Thankfully, no. I'm sure there are jobs where a software engineer could get stuck doing that (e.g. defense work, which I escaped a long time ago), but mostly no.

Some schools treat computer science as a natural science; therefore, they treat it like a liberal art.
No, it's not really debatable at all whether CS falls into Science or Technology. Computer Science falls into Mathematics. The actual computer is no more important to computer science than an actual compass and straight-edge are important to Euclidian plane geometry. So it is under the umbrella of the Liberal Arts.

There are programs called Computer Science and Engineering; if they are accredited, they have to meet BOTH the requirements for Computer Science and those for Computer Engineering, so they're a hybrid degree, part Liberal Arts, part Engineering.

The problem with liberal arts vs. STEM is that it is a flawed comparison. Science, Math, and certain aspects of Technology are liberal arts. Only engineering is not.

Don't most universities adhere to

Maths, Chem, Phys, Astro, Bio, Genetics in the College of Sciences
Art, Music, Humanities, English, Foreign language, Phil, in the College of Arts
Biz, accounting, fin, mgmt in college of business
med, nursing in college of med
engineering in college of engineering

No.

Most decent schools adhere to fas (faculty of arts and sciences) - liberal arts

Faculty of Arts and Sciences | Faculty of Arts and Sciences
Faculty of Arts & Sciences
Faculty of Arts and Sciences | Faculty of Arts and Sciences
Faculty & Staff
Departments


Many have an engineering faculty.

Many have a business faculty.

etc.
