'''UJFM 95.4''' is a Community [[Radio Station]], based at the [[University of Johannesburg]], Bunting Road Campus. Previously known as RAU Radio, the station obtained a four-year community broadcasting licence in February 2004 on the frequency 95.4fm broadcasting under a new name. Broadcasting over a 50&nbsp;km radius from the campus, the station employs registered students as well as outside presenters. The station aims to allow all staff members to learn and operate within a commercial station environment. Many ex-UJFM staff members have gone on to achieve success on radio and on other various media platforms.<ref>{{Cite web |title=All The Radio Awards 2021 winners! |url=https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/59/218500.html |access-date=2022-11-29 |website=Bizcommunity |language=en}}</ref>

UJFM 95.4 has transformed its on-air programming style and content, from a previously "Rock" music genre, to a commercial feel that includes an eclectic mix of music and talk that is pertinent to a primary target audience between the ages of 16 years and 28 years;<ref>{{Cite web |title=Liberty Radio Awards announces nominees for 2017 |url=https://www.bizcommunity.com/Article/196/59/159477.html |access-date=2022-11-29 |website=Bizcommunity |language=en}}</ref> reflecting the demographics of the UJ community and serving as an "info-tainment" portal.  As the presence of UJFM firmly entrenches itself amongst the 4 campuses of UJ, the voice of UJFM strives to serve as a platform for healthy engagement amongst its community.

In April 2010, UJFM 95.4 moved into its new studios located at the Bunting Road Campus allowing for a professional radio broadcast environment.<ref name="UJ Website">{{cite web|title=UJFM Website (About us)|url=http://www.ujfm.co.za/lightitup/index.php/about-us|access-date=7 May 2013}}</ref>
