The Centre for Culture and Technology is a research centre and extra-departmental unit of the University of Toronto Faculty of Information. In 1963, the centre started as a card pinned to the door of Marshall McLuhan's office in the English department of the Faculty of Arts and Science. In 1965, McLuhan draft Constitution for the centre read: "The Centre is established to advance the understanding of the origins and effects of technology" to "investigation into the psychic and social consequences of technologies." It hosted the former McLuhan Program in Culture and Technology which followed the Toronto school of communication theory.
