- Abstract
Recommender systems are extensively utilized across various domains to offer users personalized item suggestions based on their preferences, helping them manage the overwhelming amount of available information. Choosing the right courses when entering a new academic level can be particularly difficult for students, as selecting inappropriate courses can impact their educational progress and future career prospects. This paper investigates the application of recommender systems in aiding students in choosing courses aligned with their skills and interests. This paper examines the scope of recommender systems that assist students in selecting elective courses. The review findings indicate that a hybrid recommendation approach/system is likely the most effective method for helping students make informed course selections to prepare for their future careers.
