Victoria Branch Scholarship: The Talbot Awards

Commemorating Richard (Dick) Talbot, P.Eng.

Richard Talbot believed in the professionalism of Engineering, and was a strong supporter of the Victoria chapters of the EIC and the CSCE. He was also a mentor to many of our present members.

In 1995, the APEGBC planned to present him with the Professional Service Award, in recognition of his lifetime dedication to APEG and other technical and community societies. Sadly, Dick died of cancer that summer at the relatively young age of 64, just prior to the awards ceremony. The award was presented posthumously to his wife, Christine.

To honour Dick’s contribution, the Victoria Branch mandated a yearly award for a University of Victoria Engineering student.
