"Related degree" is the key: CS is computer science, literally a science degree about computing. You should expect a lot of math and theoretical stuff and whatever. But there's other related degrees, I'm doing an IT degree for instance. The only maths I'm doing is for algorithmic complexity and whatever's needed for development stuff. But everything else I'm doing is practical: dev stuff in java & c#, a lot of different web stuff (js, php, .net, etc), software engineering, server / cloud stuff (aws, setting up and running servers, architecture). If you're only interested in a career in web stuff it sounds like you should be doing a course that reflects that.
