Dr. Miller is the president of three companies: Fuelcell Propulsion Institute (since 1996), Vehicle Projects Inc (since 1998), and Supersonic Institute (2010). Using sophisticated mathematical, scientific, and engineering methods, the companies collectively undertake fuelcell-vehicle R&D that ranges from the theory of the Mach-2.8 supersonic tube vehicle to development of a 130-tonne prototype fuelcell locomotive, the largest fuelcell land vehicle at this time. Until 1998, he was a research professor at research universities, including the University of Illinois. Prof. Miller published numerous papers in refereed journals such as the Journal of the American Chemical Society. From 1994 to 1998, he was founding Director of the Joint Center for Fuel-Cell Vehicles at Colorado School of Mines. His first company, the nonprofit research-focused Fuelcell Propulsion Institute, has been in operation since 1996. As President of Vehicle Projects Inc, founded in 1998, which develops large prototype fuelcell vehicles such as the switch locomotive, he leads this path-finding company and frequently presents its work at leading international conferences. In 2010, he formed Supersonic Institute, which engages in education and research on supersonic transport and hydrogen. Dr. Miller received his PhD degree in chemistry from the University of Illinois, Urbana-Champaign.
