In English, science (other colloquially, as in "the science of fashionology") means something specific -- a discipline whose core technique of knowledge discovery is the Scientific Method. That is, in English, math is not a science.
Given this: in what universe is Computer Science a science? The Scientific Method is used here and there, of course, but it's hardly the core technique.
