Question about studying Software Engineering at university?

I finish high school in less than a month, and I have applied for an undergraduate program in BE(Hons) specializing in software engineering because I want to get into the field of software development, or at most, I hope to get a job as an in-house software engineer at either an animation company like Pixar, or a game design company. I've done a lot of research on software engineering and I have an idea of the kind of work I will be doing. However, I'm just curious: will studying Software Engineering at university put me in a position in which I can make my own software, for my own uses, and to design my own web pages etc., because I hope to maybe use the skills I gain in Software engineering to help me accomplish my own goals, such as making software to help with my music production and designing unique web pages to market my music and my animations. I just don't know; for creating software and designing computer solutions to my problems, is Software Engineering the best place to start, or would you recommend something else. Please, anyone with knowledge on this stuff, kindly share it with me. Thanks.
