The Rogers Communications Centre is home to Toronto Metropolitan University's RTA School of Media, Professional Communications and Journalism programs, as well as the offices for the Faculty of Communication and Design (FCAD). Completed in 1992, it is located at 80 Gould Street in downtown Toronto, Canada.

There are 3 High Definition television studios (Studio A, B, and C) and multiple audio recording and video editing suites. The building is home to the Allan Slaight Radio Institute. The RCC is also home to the newsrooms for The Eyeopener and The Ryersonian.

In November 2018 a new Creative Research Centre known as The Catalyst at FCAD opened on the 2nd floor of the RCC.

The building is not directly sponsored by Rogers Communications, although its naming is the result of a personal Can$12.5 million contribution to Ryerson by that company's longtime owner Ted Rogers and his wife Loretta in honour of Ted's father, communications pioneer Edward S. Rogers, Sr.
