Who we are

HEC Montreal’s Tech3Lab is a laboratory specialized in user experience (UX) evaluation in the context of business technologies. The research conducted at the Tech3Lab is characterized by the use of tools from neuroscience to develop a rich understanding of the experience actually lived by users, whether consumers, employees or citizens interacting with technology.

Two research chairs coexist within the Tech3Lab: the Chair in User Experience (UX Chair) and the RBC Financial Group Chair of E-Commerce (RBC Chair). In addition, these two Chairs work in close collaboration with industry in the area of UX innovation.

These industrial collaborations also create unparalleled training opportunities for the students of the new HEC Montréal Master’s degree in User Experience (UX), who complete their thesis within these partnerships.
