From his Friends and Colleagues

After his death, one of his colleagues, Prof. Dr. Sayed Ali Mortada (Prof. of Concrete Design at Alexandria University), wrote and obituary that was published in the Journal of the Egyptian Engineering Society, the translation of which reads: Prof. Dr. Michel Bakhoum, a prominent star who shone in the sky of the 20th Century. He was an able Professor, a profound researcher, and an outstanding Structural Engineer… He had a surpassing capacity for perseverance to work and for distinctive output. His works are a great evidence for his superiority during his life and will remain as an everlasting memory.

وكتب زميله الأستاذ الدكتور/ سيد على مرتضى أستاذ تصميم الإنشاءات الخرسانية بجامعة الإسكندرية مرثية له فى مجلة جمعية المهندسين المصرية ، العدد الثانى ، المجلد العشرون ، لسنة 1981 . الأستاذ الدكتور/ ميشيــــل باخـــــوم نجم ساطع احتضنه القرن العشرون ولمع فى سمائة . كان أستاذا متمكنا وباحثا متعمقا وانشائيا متفوقا ... له مقدرة وافرة على العمل المتواصل والإنتاج الممتاز . شهدت أعماله له بالرفعة فى دنياه وستظل مخلدة على مر الزمان لذكراه .

Keep the article[edit]

Although Egypt has a very long and ancient history of great architecture, its present has very few scientists and engineers. Dr. Prof. Michel Bakhoum was one of the few present engineers who highly contributed to the current Egyptian engineering. He was not only a great and genius engineer but also a great Professor, who taught as mentioned in the article more than ten thousand civil engineers. His designs and teachings has greatly affected the urban development of the city of Cairo and many other cities in Egypt. I believe the article should be kept to inform young students all over the world about his great achievements that are an incentive to each and everyone to achieve more in his/her career. I as a young Egyptian female engineer do not rely on what our ancient Egyptians did but value their mind and their great architecture as much as I value Dr. Michel Bakhoum, the teacher and model of thousands. People like him, who achieve and serve for all their lives are for all of us, young researchers, great examples. Therefore I, and my fellow young scientists and engineers, believe the article must be kept because Dr. Michel Bakhoum is not a forgotten history but a living influence.
