Same here in Poland. I believe the equivalent term in English is "Bachelor of Engineering". Four years instead of the regular three to obtain a typical bachelor's degree.
I studied at a technical university at its faculty of electrical engineering, but those who study at a "normal" university indeed go through the usual three years and are not engineers.
I guess the main difference is that I learned about analog circuits, semiconductors and all that, while those other guys didn't.
I don't have any special professional certificates, though I could optionally enroll on a course allowing me to work with voltages up to 1000V.
