UOC Rhythm – First Ever E-Radio Station by any Sri Lankan University
The very first edition of UOC Rhythm, which is the pioneering online university radio station in the country, went on air during April 2015. Powered by the official media unit of the Faculty of Science, University of Colombo, it featured programs which reflected the pulse of undergraduate life.
There were a mix of Sinhala and English language programs, and various talk shows, request shows and specialty programs were a part of the lineup. Garnering great reviews by both students and staff of the university, it was heard all over the world through the official University of Colombo website.
Spanning 2 days, the radio station was a success, and it paved the way for UOC Rhythm and FOSmedia to become a brand recognized across the country.
