CTAN update: hecthese
This third version of the class is the first major revision since 2023. It is also the first to make full use of the potential of the memoir class from which it is derived. The source code has therefore been reviewed, simplified and completely rewritten from scratch. The following is a list of the major changes that distinguish this version of hecthese from the previous one: - removal of French versions of commands and environments; - customizable doctoral jury member list; - optimized integration with the memoir document class; - definitive adoption of biblatex for bibliographies; - introduction of lualatex as the default compiler. Minimum version of TeX Live required: 2025 Minimum version of memoir document class: 2025/10/02 v3.8.4

hecthese – A class for dissertations and theses at HEC Montréal
This package provides the hecthese class, a class based on memoir and compatible with LaTeX.
Using this class, postgraduate students at HEC Montréal will be able to write their dissertation or thesis while complying with all the presentation standards required by the University.
This class is meant to be as flexible as possible; in particular, there are very few hardcoded features except those that take care of the document’s layout.
Dissertations and theses at HEC Montréal can be written on a per-chapter or per-article basis. Documents that are written on a per-article basis require a bibliography for each of the included articles and a general bibliography for the entire document. The hecthese class takes care of these requirements.
