Biography

Mr. Dunton joined Cal Poly's EE faculty in 2017 following >thirty years of engineering experience focused primarily in satellite payloads, electronics development, and advanced concepts. He continues to engage in space activities and currently supports the U.S. Space Force Space Systems Command (SSC) Strategic Analysis & Innovation efforts (VAR available upon request).

His on-going Cal Poly research with start-up partner OWL Integrations (https://www.owlintegrations.com/) has resulted in multiple senior projects & masters theses and three Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR) programs worth  >$1.4M. An OWL payload (launched March 30, 2026) currently flies on Cal Poly’s SAL-E cubesat mission.

In addition to his EE courses, Steve has taught a satellite subsystem course (AERO446) and serves as an informal advisor for the Cal Poly CubeSat Laboratory (Polysat). He is currently developing a Radar & Remote Sensing course for Cal Poly.
