Woah woah woah, are you suggesting that computer science classes should teach people how to compute things?! That's ridiculous! :D

In Portugal they do.

There is hardly any pure CS like it appears to be the US case.

All Informatics degrees are actually a mix of CS and Software Engineering.

For pure theoretical CS one needs to go for a Maths degree with focus on computation (after the third year).

Same in Spain. The degree is 5 years long (rather "was", now Bologna has changed all that) and teaches you all the way from the wire to A.I.
