In the UK computer science is typically a vague and nebulous subject, favouring theory over practical application. This is as opposed to software engineering which is programming, you will learn how to make programs, end of subject. Which do you think an employer will find more appealing?
When I was looking for a job employers were looking for what I could offer in /addition/ to my programming ability. And they weren't looking for things that computer science gives you, they were interested in practical application of knowledge, i.e. engineering.
