There were two things I learned as an undergrad (USA) that helped:
I took a class that used Oracle RDBMS & SQL to teach some basic data theory stuff. It gave me an advantage getting my first job, and I've used something from that class every day since then. (I'm a web dev.)
The compilers & interpreters classes I took taught me how to parse stuff, and it's the reason I have zero issues parsing configs, data files, etc. (And why I tend to get impatient when I open up "parsing" code and find a pile of regexes...)
Now, two things I wish I'd taken:
I was going to recommend getting conversant with git, but I see you're already on github.
And here is the HOWTO I put together for my cousins when they started college. You probably already know a lot of it, but I thought I'd throw it in anyway.
All the best!

I wish I'd taken a class on workplace psychology. My favorite book on the topic is How to Talk so Kids Will Listen, and Listen so Kids Will Talk. All humans are grown babies.
