Resources for Faculty
We have gathered a number of materials to help faculty who are either new to teaching Asian Studies material or have been teaching it for years and are looking for new approaches. These include a selection of syllabi and projects that can be utilized in whole or in part, online resources related to a variety of topics, including ASIANetwork’s Luce-funded Asian Art and the Undergraduate Curriculum database, which houses digitized works from ASIANetwork schools. Experiential learning is another topic with resources for those seeking to engage students outside of the normal classroom structure. Finally, we highlight a new initiative in 2023 – Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) Voices and Stories – and encourage faculty to check back for resources.
In this category, you will find syllabi and projects submitted by instructors of Asian Studies courses from all over. New syllabi will be continuously added, and are listed by their course titles.

Directly engaging with and experiencing Asian cultures activates learning. Asia has rich opportunities for study abroad, internships, and other forms of experiential learning.

AAPI Voices and Stories
Funded by a Mellon Foundation grant, this 2023 initiative will fund projects over the next three years seeking to reshape the landscape of undergraduate education by incorporating and amplifying the voices of AAPI individuals in our teaching, research and community engagement.
