About The Project

The main objective of this project is to design and develop a web application called Occasional. With Occasional, University of Toronto students will enjoy a convenient way to discover the rich array of campus events and clubs. The existing system for students to learn about these events is distributed across various university websites and resources, making it challenging for students to learn about events they may be interested in. We aspire to enhance this current system by centralizing all this scattered information into a single accessible events hub. Students should have easy access to all event details, thereby giving them an increased opportunity to expand their horizons. They can also create meaningful social connections, foster a sense of community, and improve their overall campus life.

Usage

The Occasional web application aims to address the diverse needs of the University of Toronto community by providing a comprehensive and centralized hub for discovering and managing campus events and clubs. For Club Executives, Occasional serves as a crucial platform for efficiently promoting and recruiting members for their clubs, improving event attendance, and achieving their club's goals. Busy University Students, benefit from Occasional by effortlessly finding and attending events that align with their interests, making friends, and enhancing their campus experience despite demanding academic and work commitments. University Faculty, can use Occasional for increasing event participation among students, eliminating the reliance on often-ignored emails, and creating a more effective channel to communicate valuable academic and career-oriented opportunities. Overall, Occasional bridges the gap between students, clubs, and faculty, fostering a vibrant, connected, and engaged University of Toronto community.
