Three engineers with deep ties to Waterloo Engineering were among the contributors to the 2020 edition of Letters to a Young Engineer, an annual publication given to graduating engineering students.
Published by the University of Ontario Institute of Technology in Oshawa, the book features words of congratulations, inspiration and advice from Waterloo alumni Ralph Haas (PhD ’68, civil), Susan Tighe (MASc ’97, PhD ’00, civil) and Carl Turkstra (PhD ’63, civil).
Haas, who passed away in June at the age of 87, and Tighe, now provost and vice-president, academic, at McMaster University, also had distinguished careers as faculty members at Waterloo Engineering.
