Corspedia

Corspedia is an easy-to-use search engine for NUS CORS Bidding Archives.
Try it out at http://www.corspedia.com.
It is powered by Node JS, AngularJS and Pure.

Quickstart

$ npm install
$ node app.js

Background

Twice a year, NUS students will have to bid for modules through the Centralised Online Undergraduate Registration System. The interface is clunky, system is slow, information is messy. The serious students who want to be well-prepared for the various bidding rounds have no choice but to turn to the CORS bidding history archives where the bidding statistics lives. However, students who have used it to do their researching get easily frustrated from using it; it's cumbersome to navigate back-and-forth between the semesters, rounds, and searching for the module of interest.

Solution

Corspedia aims to be the remedy of the above-mentioned problems. It provides a clean and simple interface for students to search for any module and displays the relevant results according to their profile: Faculty, New/Returning student and Programmes/General account.

Issues

We understand that Corspedia is far from perfect. Improvements and suggestions can reach us at nuscorsinfo@gmail.com.
