Java is #1 in the industry. I'm not saying I like it but your school is just trying to make sure you can easily get a job after school.
- omouse 18y agoThis has been covered elsewhere, but the job of a university isn't to give you what you want. It's to give you perspective and a different way of thinking. If they teach only Java, you're missing out on a lot and you'll only be prepared for Java. On the other hand, if you're taught Haskell, Scheme, Smalltalk, Forth, C, etc. you'll (hopefully) learn how to pick up any language easily and always have a job, even when the industry-standard/popular language changes. But anyway, no arguing about this because it's been beaten to death (and I just woke up from a nap, don't anger me! :P)
- lpgauth 18y agoI agree, it's just that most undergrad programs are funded by companies.
