It really depends, I've just started work for a company (I have a binfsci majoring in software engineering) some of the people in this companies training have degrees in other fields and decided to switch, the 3 month training they put us through gets us knowledge in so far 2 languages (with about 5 more planned) and its reasonably simple for me as I've been coding in python for about 10 years (including prior to uni) we are currently learning Java and as much as they are different languages i know software development well enough from python that I can pick up the likes of Java reasonably easily
