CiTR-FM (101.9 MHz) is a non-commercial FM radio station in Vancouver, British Columbia. It is owned by the University of British Columbia, with studios in its Student Union Building in the University Endowment Lands, just west of the city limits of Vancouver. It airs a variety of musical genres, including adult album alternative, as well as news and talk programming.

CiTR-FM has an effective radiated power (ERP) of 390 watts (1,800 watts maximum). Its transmitter is located on campus. Its signal encompasses most of the Vancouver Metropolitan Area.

CiTR-FM is operated by UBC students and community volunteers under the ownership of the Student Radio Society of the University of British Columbia, an entity closely affiliated with UBC's Alma Mater Society. The station's mandate is to provide programming that is alternative to the genres played on mainstream radio.

CiTR-FM is a member of the National Campus and Community Radio Association,^[1] and hosted the National Campus and Community Radio Conference in 1984 and again in 2007. The NCRC is an annual national gathering of community-oriented radio broadcasters who provide alternative radio to a diverse audience. It has been offered every summer since 1981, and it is one of the core activities of the NCRA/ANREC.
