Aging Java back-end guy. Ironically although I got my github thinking I'd fill it with nifty stuff I'd do in Java on my own time, I've ended up sticking a load of JavaScript on it instead!
I wish I'd known that JS is so ubiquitous that I'd need to know it no matter what. I mean, I didn't do a CS or IT related course at Uni - I did a Humanities course, but I ended up working as a developer anyway since I did a website as a final year project (my degree was media-related, so there's the overlap), and ended up designing databases as an admin assistant in my first job out of uni. I've had numerous times when I've had to fix this or that within a JavaScript file, but never had much in the way of formal training.
So, what I'd say is, if you're at uni & there's a module in JavaScript that you can pick up & have it count at all towards your degree, go for it. You are probably going to need it, if you do anything IT related in your job.
