    I’m soon going to study as a software engineer, but in my country that’s also called a “civil engineer”, is that true in English, as well?

          Only for some time. Job boards in their early days were simplistic in their capture of information, you either pasted or attached a cover letter & CV but they would quickly become much more granular in gathering a lot more information about your skills, even if this made the application process a lot longer than before. It had the benefit of your skillset defining your ability rather than the title of your degree obscuring it. Also, OCR & language translation advanced really quickly there after.
