​​​The HackLab is a workshop for co-creation of ideas, a physical and virtual space in which students can meet, collaborate, share and learn while bettering competences like autonomy, creativity or comunication.

The Hacklab connects students from different degrees, various universites, and so that they can collaborate alltogether, and provides them the support of the teaching staff for carrying out their projects. For this reason, every year there is a call for ideas during the first term of the academic year, through which their necessities are detected and support is provided to the groups throughout their time at UPF.

Some of the projects that came out of this iniciative are the Fiction TV Show Blanc trencat,  the apps Busco resi or Gamesquare or some Final Degree Thesis like Va de Valls or Mars Oddity.
