The Decelles BuildingA side view of the Côte-Sainte-Catherine
In 1970,Robert Bourassa inaugurated the Decelles building of HEC Montreal,[11] also known as "the School on the Mountain." The students sometimes use the expression "Bunker" to refer to it due to the use of concrete for the exterior façade and the absence of windows.[citation needed]
In 1976, the PhD program was proposed in collaboration withMcGill University. The MSc program was created in the same year.[11]
Under the presidency of Pierre Harvey, the 75th anniversary of the school was celebrated in 1982 withRené Lévesque, then Premier of Quebec, in attendance. The 7th floor of the Decelles building was inaugurated on this occasion.
Between 2010 and 2012, the 3rd and 4th floors were renovated.[12]
HEC Montréal's main building was constructed in 1996 and has since won an award for "institutional architecture."[13] The building was designed byDan Hanganu and Jodoin, Lamarre, Pratte, and Associates[14] and is situated at 3000 Côte-Sainte-Catherine (Map[15]), next to theUniversité-de-Montréal Metro Station. The former main building at 5255 Decelles (Map[15]) is now used as a secondary building. The first building used by HEC Montréal was located in downtown Montreal but is no longer used by the school.[16]
The trading floor of the school was inaugurated in 1997, and it was conceived to be usable in case theMontreal Stock Exchange ever had significant engineering problems. Now known as the Salle des marchés Financière Banque Nationale, it was renovated in 2007 to remain technologically current.[17]
