The International Studies program at Rowan University seeks a qualified adjunct instructor to teach an undergraduate course entitled Model United Nations in the spring of 2019.  In this course, students will have the opportunity to act as members of one country’s mission to the United Nations (North Korea-for spring 2019).  They will conduct research on the country’s challenges and achievements, its relations with other countries, its history, and its goals for the future; they will learn about the structures, committees, and procedures of the United Nations; and they will write position papers and resolutions reflecting the assigned country’s priorities.  Participation in the National Model United Nations conference in New York is a required course component. 

As part of the teaching duties, the instructor will accompany Rowan’s delegation to the National Model United Nations conference, which takes place in New York City from March 24-28, 2019.  The instructor must attend the conference for its duration, fully participate with students, and stay in the conference hotel during the event.  The College of Humanities and Social Sciences at Rowan University will cover registration, hotel, food, and travel costs on behalf of the course instructor.
