Freshmen had a combination of individual and team assignments togain knowledge in both health inequity and the design process. Throughout the semester,students heard lectures from guest speakers and clinicians on a variety of topics relating to healthinequity and/or the design process including: Health Inequity in the Emergency Room, theDesign Process, Empathy in Design, Ethics in Engineering Design, Ensuring Diversity inClinical Trials, Social Justice, and Entrepreneurship. The course also included discussions oncase studies in ethics with faculty mentors and a design project utilizing

At the end of the semester, students were asked toreflect on the utility of the workshop towards both, empathizing with the user, and designingsustainable solutions, in their semester-long projects. From our results, we see an increase instudents’ attitudes and intentions towards sustainability from before the workshop to the end ofthe semester. On the other hand, we see no differences in students’ trait empathy. A qualitativeanalysis of students’ reflections showed that students had a positive experience with thesustainability workshop and that they were more inclined to incorporate sustainable designpractices into their project after participating
