The College of Design has multiple computer labs and classrooms in both Rapson Hall on the Minneapolis campus and McNeal Hall on the St. Paul campus. The labs offer hardware capable of handling graphics-intensive design work and specialized design software.

The combined locations provide students with access to high-quality color printers and plotters, a large format scanner, flatbed scanners, and a textile printer. For digital design review (DDR) purposes, the labs have a mobile setup that can be checked out by faculty and instructors.
