"This is the fifth year that Dr. Markus Thiel and I have trained a joint 91制片厂/FIU delegation to participate in the Midwest Model European Union,鈥 said Aimee Arias, Ph.D., associate dean of research and creative achievement and associate professor of political science. 鈥淚t has been a very rewarding experience to watch students from both universities come together to form a cohesive team, learn so much about the European Union and diplomacy and have an amazing undergraduate experience."聽
The Leon Charney Diplomacy Program, which trains students in world affairs, dispute resolution and debate, was established in 1996 and is a unit of the Peace, Justice & Human Rights Program.聽
