Charles F. Bunting (S’89-M’94) was born in Virginia Beach, Virginia in 1962.  He was employed at the Naval Aviation Depot in Norfolk, VA as an apprentice, an electronics mechanic, and an electronics measurement equipment mechanic from 1981-1989.  He received his A.A.S. in Electronics Technology from Tidewater Community College in 1985, the B.S. degree in Engineering Technology with highest honors from Old Dominion University in 1989.  He received the M.S. degree in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University (Virginia Tech) in 1992.  From 1991-1994 Dr. Bunting held a Bradley Fellowship and a DuPont Fellowship and in 1994 he was awarded the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Virginia Tech.

From 1994 to 2001 Dr. Bunting was an assistant/associate professor at Old Dominion University in the Department of Engineering Technology where he worked closely with NASA Langley Research Center on electromagnetic field penetration in aircraft structures and reverberation chamber simulation using finite element techniques. 

In the Fall of 2001 he joined the faculty of Oklahoma State University as an associate professor.  His chief interests are fundamental variational principles and computational electromagnetics, statistical electromagnetics, electromagnetic characterization and application of reverberation chambers, and the analysis of optical and microwave structures using numerical methods including finite element techniques.
