In general computer science is not about programming. The primary goal of an accredited computer science undergraduate program is to prepare you for graduate school. If you become a good programmer along the way, most likely you will have learned that on your own.
But what you learn in computer science will help you understand how computers work. and this will aid you in working with any computer language. Once you can understand the concepts, learning the syntax of how to implement them in different languages is just practice.
I am a senior in computer science, have been working as a programmer for an ecommerce company for a couple years now. I cant even begin to tell you the messes i have had to fix that self taught programmers who didnt have a clue about time complexity or resource utilization had created.
