Apply now to take the spring semester Model UN course, POL 368. Members of this class will travel together to participate in the 59th Midwest Model United Nations from February 20-23, 2019, held in St. Louis, Missouri.
In this course, you will gain in-depth understanding of the United Nations and international diplomacy through the process of preparation for attending the conference in February. Students research a country and set of issues for the committee on which they will serve.
The conference provides experiential learning that enables you to develop a better understanding of the inner workings of the UN, and a forum to hone skills in diplomacy, negotiation, critical thinking, compromise, public speaking, writing, and research. This opportunity is a great chance to put your learning into practice!
For more information about the course, contact professor Liz Klages, who will be teaching the course and leading the delegation to St. Louis.
