Introduction

Tri-CoRe is a unified application system designed to streamline course and research application processes across the Tri-Co Consortium. It aims to simplify the registration system by providing a comprehensive course catalog, course ratings, and a hub for posting and applying to research opportunities.

Problems

The current Tri-Co course registration system is fraught with challenges, including:

• Lack of detailed information (e.g., deadlines)
• No centralized database for course and research opportunities
• Disparate systems for each college within the consortium

Solutions

Tri-Co Course Registration System

• Course Catalogue: An extensive list of courses offered across the consortium.
• Course Rating: A feature that allows students to rate courses, aiding in decision-making.

Tri-Co Research Portal

• A centralized hub for research opportunities, facilitating easy posting and application for both students and professors.

Pages Demonstration

The Tri-CoRe platform features several key pages:

• Homepage: The main landing page.

• Course Page: Where users can browse the course catalog and ratings.

• Research Page: Dedicated to research opportunities.

• API Demonstration: Dedicated to research opportunities.

Try it out

First, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying pages/index.js. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

Coding and Challenges

Technologies Used

• ASP.NET: For server-side logic and data access via Entity Framework.
• Next.js: For client-side rendering, fetching data from the server, and external APIs.
• MongoDB: Flexible and scalable NoSQL database for storing and querying application data
• HTML5
• Tailwind CSS
• JSON
• TypeScript

Challenges

• Data Consistency and Integrity: Ensuring the reliability of data across the platform.
• Large Volume Data Management: Efficient handling and processing of data.
• Front-End and Back-End Integration: Synchronizing for real-time updates and managing state and data flow.

Future Projects

• Course Scheduler: A tool to organize and schedule Tri-Co courses.
• Research Opportunities: Encouraging professors to post research openings on Tri-CoRe.
