As a CS student I took roughly 50% CS courses/50% Software Engineering courses. SE is a much rarer degree, I think. At least at my alma mater SE courses were exclusively team based - teams of 3-5 for every course from start to finish - whereas I'd have difficulty recalling a single CS course that was team based. If my SE courses were representative, I would think a SE degree would be a very positive signal for working in teams. CS I'm not so sure, the strength of CS was the actual science/math/theory.
