FYI: I have a computer science degree. I never learned any functional programming, nor lambda calculus during university. I learned about both topics in my late 30s as a professional.

I find this insane, considering how important I find it now.
Honestly, I didn't take enough CS to get into functional langs, but I did learn what a lambda was. The importance of it all came later, after years of struggling with bugs in million-line codebases that wouldn't have even existed in an immutable, functional language without inheritance.
Your school should lose its accreditation. Your programme is an absolute failure and sounds like they called their software engineering programme computer science
