Because of the interdisciplinary nature of the field of materials processing, faculty and research staff affiliated with the Center come from a range of fields beyond traditional "materials science." Specialists in chemical, electrical, mechanical, aeronautical and astronautical, civil and environmental, and nuclear engineering, as well as chemistry, biology, physics, and management, all make significant contributions. The faculty include:
