Problem Statement
Satisfying MIT’s humanities requirement can involve navigating a complex and confusing system of categories and restrictions. Currently, the primary tool that MIT students use in schedule planning and course selection is the official MIT Course Catalog. However, the Course Catalog does not provide adequate search options, and it is difficult for users to browse the results of their search. In addition, finding all the pertinent details of a class may involve consulting multiple resources, including the course catalog, HKN evaluations, Stellar, individual course websites, and word of mouth.
I Can Has HASS aims to take the pain out of finding the perfect HASS class by consolidating all this information into one place and allowing users to search for classes by a wide variety of criteria, including what fits into their schedule, whether or not a class has a final, subject matter, HKN rating, and more.
