[[MIT]]'s old introductory programming class 6.001 was taught in Scheme,<ref name="6.001">{{Cite web |last=Eric Grimson |author-link=Eric Grimson |date=Spring 2005 |title=6.001 Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs |url=http://ocw.mit.edu/OcwWeb/Electrical-Engineering-and-Computer-Science/6-001Spring-2005/CourseHome/index.htm |access-date=2009-10-20 |publisher=MIT Open Courseware}}</ref> Although 6.001 has been replaced by more modern courses, SICP continues to be taught at MIT.<ref name="6.001_zombies">{{Cite web |last1=Alex Vandiver |last2=Nelson Elhage |display-authors=etal |date=January 2009 |title=6.184 - Zombies drink caffeinated 6.001 |url=http://web.mit.edu/alexmv/6.001/ |access-date=2009-10-20 |publisher=MIT CSAIL}}</ref> Likewise, the introductory class at [[UC Berkeley]], CS 61A, was until 2011 taught entirely in Scheme, save minor diversions into [[Logo (programming language)|Logo]] to demonstrate dynamic scope. Today, like MIT, Berkeley has replaced the syllabus with a more modern version that is primarily taught in [[Python (programming language)|Python 3]], but the current syllabus is still based on the old curriculum, and parts of the class are still taught in Scheme.<ref name="61A">{{Cite web |last=John DeNero |date=Fall 2019 |title=Computer Science 61A, Berkeley |url=https://cs61a.org/articles/about.html |access-date=2019-12-17 |publisher=Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, Berkeley}}</ref>

The textbook ''[[How to Design Programs]]'' by Matthias Felleisen, currently at Northeastern University, is used by some institutes of higher education for their introductory computer science courses. Both [[Northeastern University]] and [[Worcester Polytechnic Institute]] use Scheme exclusively for their introductory courses Fundamentals of Computer Science (CS2500) and Introduction to Program Design (CS1101), respectively.<ref name="neu">[http://www.ccs.neu.edu/course/cs2500/ CS 2500: Fundamentals of Computer Science I], [[Northeastern University]]</ref><ref name="wpi">[http://web.cs.wpi.edu/~cs1101/a05/details.html#software CS 1101: Introduction to Program Design (A05): course software], [[Worcester Polytechnic Institute]]</ref> [[Rose-Hulman]] uses Scheme in its more advanced Programming Language Concepts course.<ref name="rhit">{{Cite web |title=CSSE 304: Programming Language Concepts |url=https://www.rose-hulman.edu/Users/faculty/young/CS-Classes/csse304/syllabus.html |publisher=[[Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology]]}}</ref> [[Brandeis University]]'s core course, Structure and Interpretations of Computer Programs (COSI121b), is also taught exclusively in Scheme by theoretical computer scientist [[Harry Mairson]].<ref name="brandeis">{{Cite web |title=Spring 2021 CS121b Syllabus |url=https://moodle2.brandeis.edu/syllabus/public/1202dcdfe19c0860e226f6447f66875c.pdf |publisher=[[Brandeis University]]}}</ref> [[Indiana University]]'s introductory class, C211, is taught entirely in Scheme.
