My team and I built a project — GauchoClass — which was aimed at UCSB students who are looking for the next class to take. It serves as a one-stop-shop for everything you need to know about any specific course you want to take, displaying data like credits, prerequisites, ratemyprofessor.com metrics, grade distribution, and more. Additional to processing and cleaning up 56k+ data points, I mainly focused on the frontend with close collaboration with the insanely talented and driven Anirudh Sivakumar. You know what they say, you eat with your eyes first.


Additionally, one of our glory pieces was a RAG (retrieval augmented generation) AI chatbot, “Oviya,” that can answer any questions you have about courses, and can take in your transcript via upload, parse through relevant information using Aryn Sycamore and Anthropic, some of the sponsors, and suggest next courses to take in your degree pathway. This sorcery wouldn't have been possible without our absolute wizard developers Saish Pottabathula, Ashwin Prabou, and Anirudh Sivakumar.
