I think its the other way around. Wouldn’t programming get classified as engineering, hence the name Computer Science and Engineering?

Maybe? I think the intent was similar to applied mathematics compared to mathematics.

In that computer science is ultimately behind computer programming, but most people don't care about the theory and only use applied theories in day to day work.

But I'm stretching a bit as I can't read minds over the internet yet.
