Augsburg University’s Model UN has been on hiatus but is restarting this spring. Students often participate in the Model UN conference in New York City. The event includes five days of intense negotiation and diplomacy with an international gathering of over 5,000 students. On the trip our delegation also meets with members of the UN diplomatic corps and takes advantage of the many resources and organizations of New York.
