About Course Section Offerings

The University of Iowa has designed MAUI to assist in course section creation and planning, along with other functions. Each semester, academic units review their course offerings and make adjustments as needed. Once course sections have been submitted to the Office of the Registrar, we will review them and make the appropriate room assignments. Please review the various course section components and use the information cards below to access course section management help guides.
