ITOM 6215 - Database Design for Business Applications


Credits: 2

This course covers fundamental issues in database creation and design. We start with mapping data collection in organizations onto a database with the objective of storing data consistently over time. We then proceed to study methods for information extraction from databases. In terms of practical skills, we will learn how to import spreadsheet data into Microsoft Access and generate summary reports to answer business questions related to our data. Homework assignments and an implementation project in Microsoft Access will reinforce both the design issues and the practical skills covered in the course.
