A question for anyone and everyone with some experience in web development.

The background:

The online Bachelor of Science in Computing program - from the University of London and Coursera - offers a number of "specialisms" in different branches of software engineering. Being honoured as a specialist on one's degree means meeting certain course requirements in the final year of study.

For the web development specialism, one requirement is a course in 3D graphics. This course entails learning Unity, the current number one ranked game development engine for independent game developers. The language is C#; this is used for scripting, so the actual application of C# is very limited.

My question:

How applicable - if at all - is this skill to web development in the real world?

It seems to me: hardly at all. IMHO it would be more practical to learn PHP, or a lot of other things.

As an aside, I have yet to find any academic institution that teaches PHP.
