The Course Needs portlet allows students to view the courses they will need to take to complete their selected program. Advisors can also view this information for their advisees through the Advisee Roster portlet. This portlet is used by the Major Exploration and What If Scenarios portlet to provide students and advisors with information on what would be needed to complete a major, minor or other program should the student change their major.
The purpose of Course Needs is to provide information on what a student has yet to complete for their selected (or projected) program. All required course and group requirements that have not been satisfied are displayed, indicating how much credit needs to be earned to complete the requirement as well as the current status of the requirement. If it is a category or group requirement, the user is also able to view those elements required by the group requirement. For each course requirement displayed, the user can view any current course offerings that would satisfy the requirement.
