I think you're thinking of Matlab. Mathematica isn't particularly huge in education (yet).

  Matlab might be more popular in engineering, but Mathematica is pretty pervasive world wide in math and physics especially

    Can you elaborate on why Matlab is more popular in Engineering and Mathematics in math and physics?

      Not sure, could have to do with early marketing in the 80s - we all know academia likes to stay on a path regardless of new developments. Could be as simple as "Mathematica" has math in its name and was developed by a physicist...and "Matlab" has lab in its name. Fickle folks, idk.
