With over twenty years of experience, ASDP has developed a highly effective model of faculty and curriculum development through content-focused programs that bring together nationally and internationally recognized Asia scholars and exemplary undergraduate teachers in multi-disciplinary, seminar-like communities of inquiry. Since its inception, ASDP has hosted 49 residential institutes in Hawai’i (3 to 5 weeks in duration), 23 field seminars in East and Southeast Asia (2 to 5 weeks), and 114 workshops and conferences (2 to 3 days), attended by more than 4,000 college and university professors and administrators across the country. Twenty colleges and universities across the U.S. have been designated ASDP Regional Centers, and have assumed mentoring roles for other schools in their geographical region that are committed to infusing Asian content into the undergraduate core curriculum.
