KUCV (91.1 FM) is a radio station in Lincoln, Nebraska, United States. A member of NPR, it is owned by the Nebraska Educational Telecommunications Commission (NETC) and is the flagship station of the Nebraska Public Media radio network.

KUCV signed on for the first time in 1967, originally owned by Union College, a liberal arts institution affiliated with the Seventh-day Adventist Church. After a substantial power increase in 1980, it joined NPR in 1983 as the network's second member in Nebraska. The NETC bought the station in 1988, making it the first station in its statewide public radio network.
