IDIA and Rutgers University present

Rutgers Model United Nations 2024

Welcome to RUMUN!

RUMUN 2024 will take place from November 21-24.

Rutgers Model United Nations is one of the largest and most well-regarded MUN conferences in the United States. The flagship program of the Institute for Domestic & International Affairs, Inc., started empowering students in 1992 when a group of students from Rutgers University sought to establish an international studies program at the university.  Initially founded at Brett Hall on Rutgers’ historic College Avenue campus, RUMUN has grown dramatically in size, bringing more than 40,000 students together to discuss and address global issues.

RUMUN is characterized by its in-depth topic briefs, well-trained staff, and small commitee sizes. Backed by IDIA, all RUMUN staffers are Rutgers undergraduate students who complete a year-long training program before running the conference. Attend to learn why RUMUN is one of the most acclaimed MUN conferences in the country.
