Yeah, CS degrees especially tend to be big on the theory and not too big on how to write code day-to-day. MIT has a class called "The Missing Semester of Your CS Education", which is really helpful for going over various tools; I wish I had known about it when I was in college.

Improve at what, specifically? Stuff that will help you transition into the industry easier? Try MIT's The Missing Semester. Algorithms? Your textbook is the first place to start. A specific language like C++, perhaps? You can start by looking at ISO C++ Super FAQ.
