Early human advancement was tied tothe ability of humans to understand the materials tetrahedron and apply it to find new materialshaving desirable properties for some application.Despite this call from NSF, and the aligned history of human civilization and materials, there arefew university MSE departments3 that offer students coursework that combine societal aspectsand engineering concepts in a laboratory setting. Engineering is a professional practice thatexists to solve societal problems, and having an understanding of how materials sciences iswoven into technological advancements to solve human problems is essential to development ofa well- rounded engineer, and aligned to the ABET Criteria, especially

Thus, many changeshave been introduced to the already existing courses. This paper details one such introduction ofproject work involving hands-on manufacturing lab activities in an undergraduate course,Advanced Composites. The Advanced Composites course focuses mainly on teaching advancedmethods of manufacturing as well as mechanics of fiber reinforced polymer composites. Theobjective of the project discussed in this report is to design simple composite laminates of certainstrength so that they are able
