How much algorithmic study do typical CS students really learn outside introductory algorithms and data structures classes? I mentioned both as something every aspiring programmer/software engineer should take because I agree they are critical. I think the foundation of basic algorithms (search, sort, graphs), complexity, and the data structures in which those algorithms exist provides more than adequate algorithmic study.
