CSC 263: Database Management Systems
3 credits
Students manipulate structured data using different data management techniques, and analyze data requirements. Students learn to design relational databases and use SQL to define, query, and update them. Students explore non-relational schemaless databases, and query them.

Students will:• Have an appreciation of the role of data, files, and databases in information systems. This will be measured by Quizzes 1, 2, and the Mid-Term Examination.• Understand the database development activities during the System Development Life Cycle (SDLC). This will be measured by Quizzes 3, 4, and the Mid-Term Examination.• Be familiar with the data modeling concepts (Entity-Relationship and Class diagrams) that are used in database design. This will be measured by Quiz 5 and the Mid-Term Examination.• Be able to create databases and pose complex SQL queries of relational databases. This will be measured by Lab Assignments 1, 2, and the Final Examination.• Be knowledgeable about several Database Management Systems (DBMS's such as MSAccess, Microsoft SQL Server, and ORACLE).
