ABOUT MIAS

Established in 2011, The Monash International Affairs Society (MIAS) is a student-run, not-for-profit international affairs society at Monash University.

 

With over 450 members from a diverse range of disciplines across Monash, MIAS aims to provide its members with opportunities to engage with the international order and delve into global issues. Our events, including panel discussions and international Model United Nations Conferences, help students hone their public speaking, negotiation, and communication skills.

 

The Monash International Affairs Society (MIAS) is a trailblazer in international Model United Nations (MUN) competitions. Our teams consistently bring home awards, demonstrating the excellence and dedication that set us apart on the global stage.

 

We strive to create a  hub where our members can develop relationships with international leaders in foreign affairs targeting global issues.
