The dependency tree would certainly be nice to have, but I will have to complete some pretty extensive data transformation before I can work on that feature. The UW course calendar doesn’t have a strict format on how the pre/anti/co-requisites are listed, which makes this quite difficult.

The requisites you see on the website right now are partially cleaned data. When you see course numbers that are not linked, those are exceptions not captured by my algorithms which I’ll have to fix.

Even with that done, it can become quite expensive to generate the whole tree for 2800 courses (while considering the crazy cross-lists too, there are over 250 pairs of such courses)! There are also secret anti-reqs not listed on the course calendar too… *sigh* (example: ECE 355 vs. ECE 451, ECE 452, ECE 453)

Getting the right electives in engineering is sure a huge pain in the butt… that was one of the driving factors behind the project.

Anyways, in summary, I’m working on improving the data quality so I can proceed with the development of more features that depends on federated data. =)

I’m not sure what your plans are for new features, or how you care to take requests, but it would be immensely helpful if you were able to provide links to the classes that each class allows you to take. (ie: The ECE 231 page shows that if you take it, you can then take ECE 332.)

Ideally, the entire dependency tree would be shown… (well, that would be ideal for me, maybe not an artsie. )
