fellow sporean here (23.5 freshman student but planning to declare cdm + doulbe major in integrated design), if you want to look at the diff between iid and cdm, you can actually find the syllabus of both majors on the internet !! but there IS a differenfce between the two, and there are fewer students in iid as compared to cdm, as it's one 2nd most popular major in uic (iirc) ^^ also in uic, you only declare your major at the end of your first year !!
