Any decent EE/CPE degree has been requiring VHDL classes for 20 years. Most universities call it advanced digital logic.

FPGAs are making a comeback to provide specialization speed increases as they just can't add more cores anymore. It's like math co-processers back in the day to give floating point arithmetic.
