The Royal Canadian Institute, or RCI, is an organization dedicated to the advancement of science.

First formed in 1849 by Sir Sandford Fleming, it was incorporated in 1851, and is today the oldest scientific society in Canada.

Every year they host two series of lectures, fall and winter, hosted at the University of Toronto.
