What coding languages are taught/used for the computer science curriculum? So far, I know visual basic, MATLAB, and java. Is there any language that is used more than others?
Java, Python and C are probably the most common for intro CS. More advanced courses can vary greatly.
MATLAB or LABVIEW are used only in the intro to Engineering classes. You should have some Java projects in your 2xxx CS classes and begin with some applications in C. Projects in other CS classes could be in Java, Python, C or C++ depending upon the particular class. It might be useful to do some self-study in C before coming to VT.
It’s Java.
