3 Ways to Get Involved
We hold general meetings a few times a quarter to go in-depth about what MUN is and the various ways to get involved. At general meetings, we share updates and announcements to keep all members in the loop.
These meetings are great for meeting prospective and current members of the team! Whether you are completely new to MUN or want to meet the team, anyone is welcome to attend general meetings. To get notified about general meetings join our Slack by following these instructions.
Not quite ready to compete, but excited to join our community? Staffing conferences are a low-commitment way to get insight into what Model UN is and meet new people. MUN at UCLA holds two conferences a year: BruinMUN and LAMUN.
Staffing can include anything from chairing a UN committee to acting out skits and more. No prior experience is necessary! We meet once a week to train, practice, and learn.
MUN at UCLA has a nationally recognized travel team that we are always looking to grow. We go everywhere from Boston to Chicago to Canada!
Whether you were an avid delegate in high school or are completely new to Model UN we welcome you to try out. We offer conferences for experienced delegates and newer members. Also offered before tryouts is a MUN101 session to brush up on your skills or learn what to expect during a tryout. We hold tryouts several times throughout the year.
