My work (Industrial Plant) has a pretty good cross-section of engineering disciplines. I know Electrical guys use MatLab relatively frequently. I can't say for sure what the mechanical guys use I know 2 or 3 that write C code very proficiently. Chem eng. guys are pretty heavy on Fortran from what I have seen.
I'm a Materials engineer never used Matlab. For numerical stuff I have personally used C/C++ especially GSL library but I rarely do this type of work any more. There is quite a lot of legacy stuff written in Fortan mostly heat transfer and fluid dynamics related. I try to avoid touching it. Commercial Packages like ANSYS get used a lot.
I have seen python a little bit in last couple of years but not for numerical stuff more for interfacing with other libraries like OpenCV.
