UNIVERSITY DINING HALL OR RESTAURANTE UNIVERSITÁRIO (RU)

The dining halls, supervised by UFOP’s School of Nutrition (ENUT in Portuguese), offer balanced meals at an accessible price of just R$3.00 per meal. To eat at the dining halls, the student must be regularly enrolled and have a student ID card.
Everyday, the student can check the RU’s daily menu beforehand on UFOP’s website. Go to www.ufop.br and click on the side tab “cultura e serviços,” where you will find the option “cardápio do RU” that includes the menu.
Credits for RU meals, which are put on the Student ID cards, can be purchased at the lanchonetes (snack bars) on campus.
