Meet Professor Jennifer Dill

Jennifer Dill, Ph.D
Associate Professor of Urban Studies and Planning
College of Urban and Public Affairs
Portland State University

B.S. (Environmental Policy Analysis and Planning) 1987, UC Davis; M.A. (Urban Planning) 1989, UCLA; Ph.D. (City and Regional Planning) 2001, UC Berkeley.

Dr. Dill teaches courses in transportation policy, transportation and land use, and planning methods. Her research interests focus on transportation and environmental planning, travel behavior, transportation finance, and transportation-land use interactions. She is interested in answering these questions: How do people make their travel and location decisions? How do those decisions impact the environment and people's health? How do our planning decisions impact people's travel and location decisions? Current research projects focus on travel behavior, bicycling, transit-oriented developments, active living policies, and environmental fees for transportation. Prior to entering academia, Dr. Dill worked as an environmental and transportation planner in California.

Professor Dill is on sabbatical during the 2008-09 academic year.
