Security Engineering Prescribed electiv #1062

Open GeorgeMuscat opened 1 year ago

GeorgeMuscat commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug In the progression checker, security electives such as COMP6[84]43 and COMP6447 are counted as "Free electives" and not "Security Engineering Prescribed Electives". To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Set degree to COMPY1
  2. Add COMP6443/7 to term planner
  3. Open progression checker
  4. Scroll down and cry

Expected behavior Security electives such as COMP6443 and COMP6447 should be counted as "Security Engineering Prescribed Electives" and not "Free electives".

Additional context COMP6445 does not have this issue.

Currently busy with a partial re-write. Will investigate.

To add to this, the security major works slightly differently to the other CS majors in that Extended Algos (COMP3821) is not listed as an option, even though the handbook still counts it as an equivalent course to 3121. This means that security students taking 3821 will be missing another course on the progression checker page, and Circles will suggest picking up 3121, despite having 3821 (an exclusion/equiv course) on their planner already.
