The Database Management Certificate equips students with the technical and analytical skills to design, build, and maintain modern databases that power business and technology systems. Designed for those interested in careers in data management, software development, or analytics, this 9-credit program blends programming fundamentals with practical database and SQL training.
You’ll begin with Introduction to Programming (CPL-101), where you’ll develop logical problem-solving and structured programming skills using pseudocode and flowcharts—an essential foundation for writing database scripts and automating data tasks.
Next, Database Systems (DBM-201) introduces the core principles of relational database design, normalization, and data modeling. You’ll design databases from the ground up and implement them using platforms like Oracle, Access, and MongoDB, gaining an understanding of both SQL and emerging NoSQL technologies.
Finally, in Principles of SQL (DBM-202), you’ll master query writing, table design, and data manipulation across multiple SQL environments including MySQL, Oracle, and SQL Server. You’ll also explore advanced features such as stored procedures, triggers, and indexing—skills that prepare you for real-world database management and administration tasks.
By the end of the program, you’ll have the ability to structure, secure, and optimize data systems that support applications and business operations.
