> I tend to prefer more practical programming to theory

And yet you're asking about a Computer Science. Why? You should be looking for a Software Engineering course instead.

Because I still find the theory interesting, I'd just prefer a CS course that tends a bit more towards the practical than the theoretical. Having seen a lot of the optional modules at several universities it looks like this would definitely be doable.

Plus the few courses I've seen in Software Engineering are a lot less diverse than those in CS.
