Ric SoulisThe Water Institute is tremendously saddened by the loss of Ric Soulis, a longtime Waterloo civil and environmental engineering professor and Water Institute member, who died June 21 after a brief illness.

Ric had a substantial record of accomplishments and impact through his research in hydrology, water resources and the physics of water movement.

Giovanni Cascante, a Waterloo civil and environmental engineering professor and fellow Water Institute member, was one of many faculty members who benefited from Ric’s guidance.

“Since I started my work at the University in 1997, Ric has been a role model for me because of his kindness, perseverance, strength, and dedication,” said Cascante.


The Faculty of Engineering pays tribute to Eric Soulis.
