The course is intended for students who already have a good understanding of database systems and relational database concepts. </p><p>Rationale for change: Students may begin the course with varying degrees of proficiency in using the SQL language and still be successful. The last sentence implies a level competency beyond what is required or expected for the course. It also ties the course requirements to a particular database language which could change in the future. The course uses a database language but is much more than just the language.</p><p>Submitted By</p><p>Department Chair ______Date: ______</p><p>Dean of College ______Date: ______</p><p>Decision</p><p>The course description change is administratively approved and will be updated on the curricular database.</p><p>Revised 10/02 1 of 2 The course description change is substantive enough to warrant a review of the changes to the course by the appropriate curricular bodies.
