Want to study computer science but lack meaningful areas to work in.
I love programming but after losing interest in games I am a bit confused on what to study at university.
I would be interested in energy or civil engineering but the jobs I don't think would be as much fun as hacking, it is just that I have a hard time finding meaningful areas in computer science. I think Facebook for example is just useless crap that I have to waste time on now because everybody else is on there.
Some areas in CS that interest me:
Robotics - automate boring jobs
Image analysis - medical imaging
Datamining the human genome
etc
I don't find internet stuff to meaningful.
How are the chances of landing these types of jobs, are there a lot of them?
