The Réal Décoste Merit Scholarship Program was founded to honour the visionary work of the first Executive Director of Ouranos, Réal Décoste, who died in July 2004. Mr. Décoste created Ouranos with the goal of fostering partnerships and multidisciplinarity.
He drew on his remarkable skills as a scientist, communicator and manager to give this new organization a positive start. Already, Ouranos is making its mark on the national and international scenes in research into climatology and its impacts.
A graduate of the Université du Québec à Montréal, with a PhD in Physics from the University of Maryland and a Researcher at the Naval Research Laboratory and at Hydro-Québec, Mr. Décoste also authored and co-authored over 80 articles in scientific journals, mainly on the topic of energy.
