Objectives of the course:
● To impart foundational knowledge of database concepts, data models, and architectures,
highlighting the need and role of DBMS in real-world applications.
● To develop skills in database design using ER modeling, normalization, and relational schema
creation, along with hands-on experience in SQL and PL/SQL.
● To introduce advanced topics such as storage structures, indexing, query processing,
transaction management, and concurrency control for efficient database operation.
Course outcomes:
Upon completion of the course, the student shall be able to,
CO1: Explain the fundamental concepts of database systems including data models, architecture,
schemas, and the necessity of DBMS.
CO2: Model real-world scenarios using Entity-Relationship (ER) diagrams and transform them into
relational schemas.
CO3: Write efficient SQL and PL/SQL queries for data definition and manipulation.
CO4: Apply normalization techniques and decomposition methods to design efficient and consistent
relational databases.
CO5: Demonstrate understanding of storage structures, indexing, and hashing techniques for
effective data retrieval.
CO6: Illustrate the concepts of transaction management, concurrency control, and ACID properties
in database systems.
