I think most university students are not actually interested in research. They are interested in computing, and they do find some of the experimental nature in the field interesting, but I think (and this exposes my personal bias) most people are more interested in telling a computer to do something than understanding how to make it do it efficiently. I think folks get degrees in CS because university degrees are a path to a decent salary, and it’s a subject they like.
