I studied in Hamburg, Germany. We started our first programming course with Ruby, the second was Java. We did some Prolog and Erlang later on and I took an optional course on the the basics of FP in which Scala was used. Oh, and there as a Software Engineering project where we could choose from either Java or C#. And we did some Assembly/C in an OS course as well. All these were undergrad courses. My graduate courses were mostly either theoretical or project work where we could choose our own language. The only exception was Maude [1], which we had to use.
