The rugby union team currently plays at the Torneo de Córdoba, the regional league organised by Unión Cordobesa de Rugby.

The institution also hosts the practise of other sports disciplines such as basketball, football, handball, swimming and volleyball.

The club was founded on 8 April 1907 when the representatives of Medicine, Engineering and Law Universities met at the Café Del Plata with the purpose of creating an athletic club, inspired by the institution founded in Medicine University a year before.

Universitario has won the most provincial championships with 20 titles, however its last win was in 1977.

In recent years Uni have struggled to make an impact on the competition.
