About MUN

The Model United Nations at the Community College of Aurora (CCA) is an exciting, large-scale immersive learning simulation focused on international engagement, community outreach, and an interdisciplinary student curriculum. The program is, in part, a modification of the NMUN program where participants take on the role of a national delegation and then simulate that role through a UN body.
