@roforillo There are four main majors that teach design at CU Boulder, including in some degrees, industrial design:

1. Atlas Institute is run by a creative architecture professor Mark Gross, who is also appointed in computer science, see the design majors here: https://www.colorado.edu/atlas/academics http://mdgross.net/

2. There is an architectural engineering degree that teaches building and lighting design: https://www.colorado.edu/ceae/prospective-students/undergraduate-studies/architectural-engineering

3. Landscape and urban design is also taught in the Environmental Design major: https://www.colorado.edu/academics/programs/environmental-design

4. Product design is taught in mechanical engineering: https://www.colorado.edu/mechanical/

Its much harder to get admitted to the College of Engineering, than it is to get a degree in Environmental Design or any degree at the Atlas Institute, which is a combination of art, media and computer science or mechanical design.

The CU Boulder Atlas Institute is similar to the MIT Media Lab.
