Students from any engineering major can take thiscourse, meaning that some were nuclear-interested but many were planning to major in otherdisciplines. As is typical of many schools right now, we had a significant number of studentsinterested in computer science and engineering. But a wide range of engineering fields wererepresented in our course.All Introduction to Engineering courses in the College of Engineering are design-build-testcourses, as is ours.

More recently, the practice of ungrading has become more prominent in thehumanities and social sciences and is slowly being adopted by engineering education. In coursesthat utilize ungrading, students are required to develop a portfolio of writing intensive or othertypes of projects in lieu of traditional assignments [2]. Students are expected to submit their workfor review, obtain feedback from the instructor, and implement that feedback over the course

Critical Race Theory (CRT) provides a framework forchallenging the ways in which race and racism implicitly and explicitly impact social structures, practices,and discourses; it has also been used to understand the experiences of Black graduate students navigatingengineering environments (Crenshaw, 1991; Ladson
