The problem is that CS curricula vary quite a bit from university to university. Having ABET accreditation helps (or at least used to) a good bit with this as it required a program to include certain brass tacks material as well as (workforce) project participation items. However, many of those accredited programs effectively emerged out of EE departments so there's a very weird skewing effect in the field.
