Summer Institutes
ASDP summer institutes are designed for undergraduate faculty, primarily in the humanities and social sciences, and are held at the East-West Center campus in Honolulu, Hawaii. From 2- to 5-weeks in length, these programs blend content-focused lectures with group discussions, film showings and cultural events. They include the annual three-week Institute on Infusing Asian Studies into the Undergraduate Curriculum, funded by the Freeman Foundation, to which teams of college and university faculty members are encouraged to apply, as well as programs funded by other sources including the National Endowment for the Humanities.
UPCOMING
- Enhancing Undergraduate Chinese and Southeast Asian Studies
- A Two-Year Initiative Focusing on Minority-Serving Institutions, funded by the Henry Luce Foundation
Past Institutes
Faculty and Curriculum Development Workshops
Regional workshops hosted on the campuses of ASDP-affiliated colleges and universities are an important part of ASDP’s outreach and play a crucial role in advancing and sustaining Asian studies development. Workshops have been funded by NEH, The Freeman Foundation, the Japan Foundation, and the East-West Center. ASDP’s two- to three-day, intensive faculty development workshops are interdisciplinary in nature and stress the relevance of Asian content in the undergraduate classroom. While culture and the humanities are the focus of the regional workshop series, each workshop’s specific Asian culture content is tailored to meet the particular needs and interests of the host campus and other colleges in the region, as well as the local community. Presentations, panels and discussions during the day focus on curriculum development and evening programs are open to all faculty members, students, and the general public.
