Description

Feature Request

So some of us go for semester long Industrial Attachments as part of our curriculum. And during those semesters, we have extra MCs that we can take and would like to fill them up with some classes. But the thing is, there is no way to search for evening modules. It's only that your own home Faculty emails you the list. But sometimes you want to clear modules from other faculties/departments too. And finding their list is a hassle as they have different websites.

Describe the solution you'd like

Since NUSMODS has all the information of modules, we could add an extra filter that will show modules that offer classes after 18:00, as that's what the University considers as an evening class. And this would apply to all faculties, and we can browse at our whim.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Right now, trying to compile a pdf list that contains the module timings released from various faculties. But this is a slow process as we have to reach out on platforms such as Reddit and wait for students to send in the files. "Ctrl-F" is a nice feature on Pdfs, but I think we can do better.

Additional context

Not any. Just want a filter button to filter the evening modules, that's all!
Thanks y'all! =)

Research direction

Start by locating the module schedule data and the existing module-filter UI; no specific files or tests are named in the issue. The work is done when users can filter modules with classes after 18:00 across faculties and the existing filtering behavior remains intact.
