Ph. D., Civil Engineering, Tennessee Technological University, 2007.

Dr. Hill joined the civil engineering faculty in August of 2008. Prior to coming to WVU Tech, Dr. Hill held academic appointments at Trine University in Angola, Indiana, and McNeese State University in Lake Charles, Louisiana. Dr. Hill is a native of Tennessee and attended Tennessee Technological University where he earned B.S. (2001), M.S. (2003) and Ph. D. (2007) degrees in Civil Engineering. Dr. Hill's research interests include wetland hydrology, geographic information system (GIS) applications in water resources engineering, and rainfall-runoff modeling. Dr. Hill teaches a variety of courses in basic engineering science and water resources/environmental engineering. Courses taught previously include statics, fluid mechanics, hydraulics, solid waste management, environmental engineering, and supporting laboratory courses. Dr. Hill is a member of the American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), the American Society of Engineering Educators (ASEE), and Chi Epsilon, a national civil engineering honor society.
