The Material Science Tetrahedron, which is sometimes used to define the scope of this subject, connects the concepts of material processing, microstructure, material properties and performance of the material in applications. This model can be the foundation for discussing with students the impact of manufacturing processes to materials, such as heat treatments and consequences of welding or machining to the microstructure of metals as well as the effects of laser melting or sintering to additively manufactured (AM) components. On the other hand, it also indicates that material properties play an important role in determining manufacturing parameters, such as material removal rates or tool wear rates in machining. The EduPack educational software was developed as the first computer-based materials teaching resource at the Engineering department of Cambridge University. It consists of two linked databases - one of materials properties (MaterialUniverse) and one of manufacturing processes (ProcessUniverse). This is an ideal platform for cross-disciplinary teaching, not only for materials and manufacturing subjects, but the embedded tools also support all types of engineering design and product development courses; including materials and process selection as well as environmental and sustainability assessment of products. The two main databases contain around 4000 materials and 250 manufacturing processes, respectively, with informative images and schematics facilitating understanding. An extensive number of comparable properties are given in individual datasheets. All these properties are possible to visualize in colourful charts (Ashby charts) that provide good overviews and a good basis for understanding and decision-making. In this paper, relevant educational examples are shown that integrates materials with manufacturing in a natural way.
