RUC main studio

Coimbra University Radio (Portuguese: Rádio Universidade de Coimbra - RUC) is a university radio station of the Coimbra Academic Association (students' union) of the University of Coimbra in Coimbra, Portugal. It broadcasts on 107.9 FM (also broadcasts on-line). It was founded in 1986.

The studios and offices of this university radio station are located in the main building of the Associação Académica de Coimbra, in the city centre. One of its trademarks is that there are no set playlists for any of the programs broadcast. This allows for an exceptionally wide range of musical genres.

For its 25th anniversary, the radio hosts concerts of the indie Swedish band the Radio Dept.[1], and later Eleanor Friedberger from the rock duo The Fiery Furnaces and the Welsch songwriter Euro Childs.
