325. Database Systems
In an age of information, it is crucial to understand how to design systems to manage and organize potentially large collections of data. This course involves an in-depth study of the issues involved in today's database management systems (DBMS). Topics include the theories behind database architecture (including the relational model), database design and DBMS implementation, as well as the collection, organization and retrieval of data through query languages such as SQL.
