Is there such a direction in physics and mathematics faculties?

Are there any specialties where there is a physics and mathematics direction and a little programming (or something else from computer science), the fact is that both important scientific areas are of interest. Since childhood, I love physics (engineering, astronomy incl.), but also computer science.
Is it possible to get a bachelor's degree in physics and then a master's degree in technical science?
I understand everything, it's like catching two birds with one stone :)

Well, actually, yes - look at such universities as the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology and MEPhI, physics is there in most specialties in large numbers "by default", a little bit of "computer science" is there, because this is a mandatory course, and in some faculties significant amount of CS.
Classic examples are FRTK MIPT, which was conceived as a forge of personnel for radio electronics, but has already produced many competent programmers, or, say, the case when the top Russian team of PostgreSQL DBMS developers left the Physics Department of Moscow State University.
So such a combination is not uncommon (no matter how sad it may seem to someone).

At the Faculty of Physics of Moscow State University there is a Laboratory of Engineering Physics , where there is parallel programming (students eventually run programs on the Lomonosov supercomputer), and design on FPGAs, and much more. All this is closely related to physics. And, generally speaking, it is impossible to imagine modern physics without programming.
