FORTRAN was commonly used for formula translation in scientific and engineering programming, and used to be commonly taught in “CS courses for non-CS engineering majors”. Now, these courses commonly use MATLAB.

COBOL (assuming that what you mean by “Cobalt”) is a common business oriented language. Perhaps it is less common now for new systems, but many legacy systems exist.
