The Advisor: Graduate Student Q and A chatbot
Our project features an interactive chatbot which graduate students can use to answer questions on various university related topics. These include adivising assistance, social adjustements, acclimation to campus, etc. All that's required of the student is to visit the site at link, and type their questions into the textbox.

All info about the project can be found in the Team 9 files. Everything was documented in google drive. Our meeting summaries are scrum style listing everyones tasks for the sprint and more. Meetings were held every Wednesday and thoroughly documented. All conceptual work was written and documented in the Team 9 Google Drive folder. At the end of CISC499 Spring 2025, ownership of that google drive folder was transferred to Mrs. Carey. Please contact her for any questions or direct access. As for the work we've done across CISC498 and CISC499, a copy can be found in the Team 9 shared folder zip in the repository.
