Carnegie Mellon seems to be one of the US universities that are most aggressively including FP in their instruction:

CMU is one of the only places I know of that is so agressively and comprehensively teaching FP in its normal undergrad curriculum. However, off the top of my head here is an (incomplete, unordered) list of other places with faculty/research groups doing things with FP: * Princeton * Yale * Harvard * University of Kansas * Indiana University Bloomington * Portland State * UPenn In such places, as an undergrad, yes, you might have to write programs in Java -- but if you are motivated you could get involved with cutting-edge FP research. You will learn a lot more that way than just having FP taught in your classes anyway! In my experience motivated undergrads who want to get involved in a research group are often welcomed. -Brent
