Form of study
Full-time form
Prerequisites and co-requisites
Knowledge of the basics of the SQL language, the DDL language, the DML language, the complexity theory of algorithms, the principles of designing and implementing algorithms, the theoretical basics of statistics, the basic principles of software development on client-server technology, the basics of website development. To have basic skills in designing relational databases, writing queries in SQL, DDL and DML languages, designing algorithms to solve applied problems, developing web pages and application to interact with the database, working with Windows and Unix operating systems.
Course content
This subject involves studying a specialized programming language of database management system for developing additional database functionality, as well as studying the basics of query optimization in databases. The subject integrates previously acquired theoretical knowledge and practical skills in the field of databases, forming a holistic view of the process of designing, implementing, maintaining database, and analyzing database performance. Studying this subject allows you to comprehensively understand the technological processes of data processing in relational databases, learn how to optimize queries and automate some data processing processes in database. The subject mainly is focused on learning and acquiring practical skills in using a specialized programming language of the database management system to create additional database functionality as stored functions, procedures, triggers on the example of the PL/SQL programming language of the Oracle DBMS.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
Lectures, laboratory work, practical activities, independent work
Assessment methods and criteria
The subject integrates various types of work, including independent work. The student has to assert laboratory and practical work by completing an individual task during class and demonstrating the result to the teacher. For some topics, the assertion in teamwork is provided. The grade for the work depends on the correctness of the individual task.During the semester, after completing the study of the relevant topics (content parts), a control test or a written task is conducted. During the semester, each student also completes an individual project related to the design and development of a database for their chosen subject area, which have to include triggers and client interface development. The project evaluates by the commission, the points for it are included in the total amount of points for the semester. During the semester, the student can score a maximum of 60 points, the remaining 40 points can be obtained in the exam.
