Intro to Information Security, for example, has four hands-on projects:
1. Exploit a buffer overflow in a C program
2. Use Cuckoo to understand a malware attack
3. Implement CBC encryption algorithm and a brute-force algorithm to crack it
4. Demonstrate an XSRF, XSS and SQL injection attack
Remember this is an intro course and there are about 2-3 weeks per project so you won't be an expert but I'd say it makes you aware of some of the basic security attacks and how to prevent them.
