Databases and database management systems (DBMS) provide the foundation for virtually all modern information systems. In this course, students develop an understanding of databases with a focus on relational database technology. Students learn to use the ‘language’ of relational databases, Structured Query Language (SQL), and how to design and implement databases. The course outlines how databases are designed to support both transaction processing and business intelligence applications. A major component of the course is a group project where student collaborate to conceive, design and build a computer-based application and database.
