How to display only department fields associated with a selected department in student automation

hi, I'm facing a challenge while working on the student automation system. After selecting the department field in the form, I want to display only the departments associated with the selected unit in the department field. Currently, I can see that the units are listed correctly in the unit selection dropdown, but all departments are listed in the department selection dropdown and not filtered. I'm struggling to find a solution for this. How can I display only the departments associated with the selected unit in the department field after selecting a unit? Do I need to edit my existing code or develop a new approach for this? Controller.cs:

c#
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult AddStudent()
{
    ViewBag.departments = _context.departments.ToList();
    ViewBag.units = _context.units.ToList();
    ViewBag.cities = _context.cities.ToList();

    return View();
}

c#
[HttpGet]
public IActionResult AddStudent()
{
    ViewBag.departments = _context.departments.ToList();
    ViewBag.units = _context.units.ToList();
    ViewBag.cities = _context.cities.ToList();

    return View();
}

AddStudent.cshtml:

c#
@model Student
<form asp-action="AddStudent" method="post" class="m-5">
    <div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="Department.Unit.unitId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.units, "unitId", "unitName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick Unit</option>
    </select>
</div>

<div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="unitId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.units, "departmentId", "departmentName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick Department</option>
    </select>
</div>

<div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="cityId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.cities, "cityId", "cityName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick City</option>
    </select>
</div>

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save</button>

</form>

c#
@model Student
<form asp-action="AddStudent" method="post" class="m-5">
    <div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="Department.Unit.unitId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.units, "unitId", "unitName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick Unit</option>
    </select>
</div>

<div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="unitId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.units, "departmentId", "departmentName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick Department</option>
    </select>
</div>

<div>
    <select class="form-control" asp-for="cityId" asp-items="@(new SelectList(ViewBag.cities, "cityId", "cityName"))" required="true">
        <option value="">Pick City</option>
    </select>
</div>

<button type="submit" class="btn btn-primary">Save</button>

</form>

Thank you.
