Model United Nations
Model United Nations (MUN) at the University of California, San Diego is a global affairs interest organization that allows students to learn diplomacy through country role-play and simulation. MUN members simulate the United Nations by assuming the roles of diplomats and attending conferences/competitions. At these conferences, students debate global issues, conduct speeches, draft resolutions, form political alliances, and resolve critical international problems. MUN at UC San Diego presents students with an exceptional opportunity to sharpen their skills as debaters, public speakers, and researchers while expanding their knowledge of international politics.
Our organization is composed of 3 main branches: Travel, Home Conference, and General Body Meetings. Our Travel sector trains and sends students to compete in conferences across the nation, while our Home Conference plans and executes our annual high school competition. And we discuss international current events and conduct simulations to improve debate skills during our weekly General Body Meetings.
