This is not the whole story, there is something called DSP, where you do
*not* develop any software, but invent algorithms or find a way to implement
mathematical functions. Look up a book of Oppenheim/Schafer,
Proakis/Manolakis etc. You will find books full of math, but no software,
even if you use Matlab as a tool.
So, DSP is part of computer science (and of course EE), uses math, does some
programming (mainly in assembler), but the essence is to develop algorithms
for signal processing. You call that software engineering?
