Yes – it’s part of computer science, and you can study it at university. It’s also used a lot in other sciences.

Yes, definitely! Not only is coding a science in itself, but it is used a lot in most sciences today, and it’s importance is only increasing. I recommend looking at programmes offered by the Sutton Trust, they have a lot of coding related opportunities (all free). https://summerschools.suttontrust.com/browse-courses/?wpv-subject-category=computer-sciences

Yes! We do loads at STFC in the Hartree Centre – see here: https://www.hartree.stfc.ac.uk/Pages/home.aspx
And you can learn basic coding online with code academy which I’d recommend: https://www.codecademy.com/
It’s super useful when I’m creating websites.
