In my object oriented programming class, we learned some of the main concepts of UML and I was just wondering if UML is common in real world situations or are there more popular methods.

There are certainly organizations that rely on UML, including a few that may expect you to answer OO design questions with UML in an interview. Plus, documentation tools like Doxygen generate UML-like diagrams to describe a class hierarchy.

Beyond that though, most groups I've worked with in academia or industry don't really use it. If you want an explanation of why, read "Death by UML Fever".
