Looks like here is a list [Julia in the classroom](https://julialang.org/learning/classes/?utm_source=chatgpt.com).
If you mean purely teaching the language itself…

It would be pretty difficult at this point to have anywhere close to a complete list. Most of the universities I have seen at least one course using Julia. So… the list is probably pretty close to all of the R1 universities.

My university where I was introduced to Julia (UNSW) isn’t in that list haha.
The neighbouring university (USyd) is though.

There are 2k+ 4 year colleges in the US, and 400+ universities in the EU, and then probably at least 5k+ universities in the rest of the world (the terminology is a bit fuzzy, if you count institutions that grant any kind of higher education degree there are many more).
It is impossible to be comprehensive in this list, and that is not its purpose. It is a remnant of the early days of Julia, when advertising adoption was important.
It still not clear if @WuSiren wants to know about courses _using_ Julia (an impossible task), or courses teaching _Julia for its own sake_. The latter would be pretty unusual, I don’t know of any examples.

Yeah I had no expectation for it to be comprehensive.
Moreso just a fun comment based on the light-hearted rivalry between USyd and UNSW among my friends and I that I failed to convey.

Interesting! Can you link the syllabus or something for the “Julia only” course? Just curious.

I am also giving one at [Leibniz University Hannover](https://qis.verwaltung.uni-hannover.de/qisserver/rds?state=verpublish&status=init&vmfile=no&publishid=415265&moduleCall=webInfo&publishConfFile=webInfo&publishSubDir=veranstaltung)

I actually meant the latter.

[Bayesian Machine Learning and Information Processing (5SSD0)](https://biaslab.github.io/teaching/bmlip/) at Eindhoven University of Technology uses Julia and Pluto for all the lectures, thanks to @fonsp

I think doing stuff _with_ julia is more relevant. Students just need a motivation to learn new software/coding skills etc.
Purely teaching the programming language seems dull and would soon become pointless. And they will forget all about it in one or two years. (I forget all about the C language, Matlab and python currently.)
(But for CS students who wants to learn about designing a language, that makes sense)

At Unicamp we also have a version of the MIT (Introduction to Computational Thinking) course that is called (translated from Portuguese) Scientific Computing Lab. I created it. It is a success and now mandatory for Apllied Math students.
