Since2008.

Same mission since day one: be the bridge between McGill students and technology-driven firms.

Desautels Faculty of Management

At thecrossroads.

The Desautels Technology Club organizes events that give students exposure to the technology field in a way that complements their studies.

That means meeting and learning from industry professionals, understanding the latest trends in technology for specific industries, and applying what they learn in class to real-world problems.

Formerly the Desautels Business Technology Club (DBTC), the club rebranded as DTECH. Beyond the name, the rebrand brought new events that now draw students from business, engineering and computer science, along with graduate students and young professionals.
