Computational neuroscience sounds like what they'd be interested in, though it's not really something you'd study at the undergraduate level, more like a Masters you'd do to build on a neuroscience Bachelors degree. Also, they're more likely to be examining fruit fly neurons under a microscope than reinventing the human brain from scratch.

Electronic engineering and CPU design might be a better bet for bringing about the Singularity in less than a thousand years, though it's a very difficult field to get into. I'm tempted to suggest they do journalism so they can write exciting articles about how the Singularity is just around the corner. It might not advance the basic science very much, but it might inspire people who can.
