To test this, we added lectures, assignments, and active-learningmodules into required seminar courses at the undergraduate and graduate levels that explicitlydealt with gender inequalities and implicit bias in engineering. We hypothesized that theacknowledgement and open discussion of these issues for women would enhance their sense ofbelonging within biomedical engineering and increase their intention to persist in engineering.Additionally, we investigated whether a resource intensive small-group discussion enhanced theimpact of the educational modules.Methods In the fall semesters of 2021 and 2022, an anonymous survey was
