VIRTUAL CAMPUS ASSISTANT CHATBOT

The development of the Virtual Campus Assistant Chatbot successfully addresses the communication gap between students and administrative information at Priyadarshini Bhagwati College of Engineering (PBCOE). By integrating React.js for the frontend and an AI-driven Admin Dashboard, the system provides a robust solution for real-time academic queries. The implementation of Natural Language Processing (NLP) allows the system to accurately interpret student inquiries regarding faculty locations, scholarship departments, and alumni details. Furthermore, the statistical analysis conducted during the study confirms that the chatbot significantly reduces the time required for information retrieval compared to traditional manual methods. The introduction of the AI Entry Generator in the admin module ensures that the knowledge base remains dynamic and easily manageable by non-technical staff. In conclusion, this intelligent system promotes a digitalized, smart campus environment, enhancing overall institutional efficiency. Future work will focus on integrating voice recognition capabilities and expanding the database to include real-time student attendance and examination result tracking
