Chris Williams is an assistant professor in both Mechanical Engineering and Engineering Education at Virginia Tech. He has brought the Fab@Home machine to Virginia Tech to research ways the machine can be used for educational purposes as well as reach people with skills and talents in other areas of interest. He is mainly interested in showing students with interest in the arts that, through a concept such as rapid prototyping, they have a place within the field of engineering.
