What was/is the state of economics classes in your university?

So, the topic. What was/is your experience? How did you get into Austrian economics?

I got a degree in computer science 10 years ago in St.Petersburg, Russia. Spent two semesters studying macro and microeconomics. The course didn’t mentioned any particular school of thought, but mostly it was just basics of monetarism, Marxism and a bit of Keynes. Ideas of Austrian, historical or other schools of economics were not mentioned at all. I only knew about it because of my personal interest in social science and the debates surrounding it.

Even with the mentioned mix, each specific topic was presented very narrowly. Economic cycles were explained only through basic bank rates, production output was viewed through classic production functions of labor and capital, etc. So naturally, the students were very biased towards these ideas. However, since it was not close to the core computer science course, I can’t say that any of my former classmates remember the content of these lessons.
