The RIT SE major is still more technically focused than most IT majors, but it appears to be overspecialized in one particular topical subarea. A theoretical analogy would be if a CS department offered a major where every or almost every upper level course was a course on some aspect of databases (or pick a subarea of your choice). You might consider it to be too narrowly focused for an undergraduate major for someone intending to go to work in the computing industry.
Even computer game design majors, often criticized for having too narrow a focus, tend to touch on more CS subareas than the RIT SE major does.
