Or get a degree in literally anything and learn to code yourself. If you're really passionate about the science of computing, do CS. But if you're really into particle physics, anatomy or medieval history, do a degree in that

The purpose of a university is research. They teach undergraduate courses so they can get more researchers to further academia. The university isn't interested in anything else. If your goal is to maximize your earning potential, there
