AB  - This article presents preliminary findings based on an intervention that we applied in an upper-division engineering course. The intervention is designed to get students to question the role of engineers as designers of society through critical analysis of engineering designs that do not adequately consider the diversity of their user base. Preliminary findings reported here center on a thematic analysis of the students' responses to the assignment, highlighting major trends in the data showing that students are attentive to designs that negatively impact women and people of color. We discuss implications for further development of the intervention based on evidence from others in the field and the efficacy of our intervention in demonstrating to students that engineering as a discipline is attentive to issues of inequity.
