The University is progressively introducing new course structures for selected courses from 2010.
The structures will differ depending on whether you are commencing a course in 2010 or are continuing in your course.
To ensure we are showing you the correct course information, please make a selection below.
Are you a commencing (new) student or a continuing (re-enrolling) student?
Once inside the handbook site you can change your choice between old and new courses at any time using the coloured link on the top menu bar.
You can also find out more about new course structures on the Course Structures Project website.
The technical aspects of database management systems are investigated, including advanced SQL querying, database application development, database interface development, the maintenance of data dictionaries, the specification and enforcement of integrity and security constraints, transaction integrity and concurrency control, and tasks and responsibilities in the administration of database management systems.
The unit maps to the Oracle Certification Exam IZO-007 and the SQL portion of the Exam IZO-042 and offers students a solid understanding of database management systems and how to use them effectively.
