Introduction to database planning, design and management, data modeling and representation, and fundamental concepts of database access. Includes study of the relational model and other models, database and Internet interaction, and study of commonly used database systems. Empasis on applications of database querying, forms and reports, generic SQL (Structured Query Language), and VBA (Visual BASIC Applications). Will include hands-on experiences. Prerequisite: CSA 154 and CSA 163. Offered only on regional campuses.
- 219 Survey of Operating Systems (3)
- General introduction to and survey of operating systems.
