Design is part of engineering, but engineers will go on to build for example. Many folks like to gatekeep the use of engineer as a word. Mostly it just comes down to the fact that a displine hasn't matured yet and isnt' taught in a rigourous and formal manner. It is still engineering. See Network Engineering for example.
