Future computing technologies

Nov 26th, 2006

Hello everyone. I would imagine a fair few people who hang around in this forum have done or are doing computing related degrees. I was just wondering, do computer science / related degrees these days contain material on upcoming new computing technologies like quantum computing and biological computing? You can find some interesting articles about these technologies here:

That, of course, depends on what university you go to. Some schools offer bioinformatics majors. I don't think any have CS students deal with quantum computing as any big thing -- that field is just undeveloped so far.
