Meet Scott!

  • First-year student

  • Major: Biomedical Engineering

    • Pre-Med Track

  • Little to no flexibility in courses to take (has to stick to requirements)

  • Uses sample course curriculum to find classes

  • Struggles with figuring out which categories their major credits fit under, and having to search through multiple categories instead of searching by courses that would fit specific major requirements.

Problem Statement

WashU’s current interface for course listings is outdated and hard to navigate.

Students don’t have the ability to do refined searches, find required major classes, or just EXPLORE!
