	I am a student and am new to this news group,so this may
seem like a stupid question to most of you. I read that soft- 
ware engineering as a sub-discipline under computer science; but 
I also read in an another news group that software engineers
were considered actual engineers (like AE,EE,ME ....).
What are the actual degree requirements of software engineers and also
what are their job definitions ?
