I don't want to solve real problems neither use math as a tool...
I'll apply the acquired knowledge in computing.

Oh.

It's not my main objective, but that would be useful.

Get a degree in theoretical computer science.  It is exactly what you are looking for.

Seconded. Also, good computer scientists are in very short supply. Numbers of graduates in that field have been steadily falling since the dot com bubble burst, despite the demand from firms like Microsoft and its subsidiaries for new graduate employees.
