Math and Physics background... you'll most likely enjoy lisp.
But if you want to actually use a language that most programmers know, I would go with Python, C/C++, of Java.
If your totally new to programming, python would likely be the easiest to learn.
To actually learn a programming language; while you can use eBooks, and online tutorials. I have found that nothing beats a good physical book.

Math: definitely.
Physics: not so much.
Regarding learning a programming language before starting with university: Find out which programming language is on the curriculum of the university and learn that one.

Oooh I have a friend who has a mother who has a cousin who knows a cook whose daughters boyfriend had Databases in his studies too. And as easy as they may seem. If your professor is an as*beep*ole he will ask for how EXACTLY a database is being made and really the stupid theoretical stuff in exams. So care well for that subject, just a hint

How about asking someone who is studying there?

Learning a specific language is not important, it's important to now how programming works and get a feel for that. It's no big deal learning a new language when you grasped the concepts behind it.
Since your uni only mentions RAD I would guess you will learn Visual .Net/Something there
But I agree with Crush, ask students or just call the uni.

Rich courses, geared to business.
RAD are normally performed by Object Oriented languages (OOP) like java, .NET etc.
Web applications can be done by php, java, perl, python, .NET etc.
For Database, you'll need SQL query language.
For System analysis, UML languages
as far as I can guess, most serious accounting/business softs are made of C/C++
Edit: most of the languages stated above are mainly made of c/c++ & this game too
BTW, do talk with your course teacher

& enjoy your studies

Not quite. You can do any of the languages in any of the others. You can compile any of them into machine code.
