As a first year computer engineering student trying to start building a portfolio, I am doing research into projects to do this summer.

I've done research on this topic and it is my understanding that making a game engine is a good way to start developing your general computer engineering skills. However a lot of the information that I found on the internet assumes that I'm trying to look for a career in game development which I'm not (not exclusively)

so I wanted to come here to ask those of you who have made game engines if you consider that they are a good way to start developing general computer engineering skills.
