Considering an undergraduate course is about 3-4 months in duration, there's only so much it can cover in any depth. Even the most rigorous are still pretty shallow compared to what someone with years of work in the field would know.
Of course! It's a survey course. But you could probably get somewhere significant in a rigorous 3-month course on memory corruption.
RPISEC's Modern Binary Exploitation is somewhat famous for doing exactly that!
More people interested in security should know about RPI. :)
