Check an Instructor's Focus Approval Status
(Last updated on November 1, 2009. Includes information on most
Spring 2010 proposals.)
Search
by UHM instructor name, department, or subject area to see if an instructor has a
Focus approval. Those with "active" approval do not need to submit a Focus proposal form.
As long as they are listed as the section's instructor of record in MyUH
before continuing student registration
begins, their approved Focus designation(s) will be added to their
section(s).
