Database Programming is the study of how information is stored, organized, and retrieved in database systems. In this course, students learn SQL and database design principles so they can create tables, add and update data, and write queries that answer real questions from stored data. It also covers how to keep databases accurate, efficient, and secure.
Database Programming is a self-paced online course built around video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. The grade is split evenly across Attendance, Quizzes, Assignments, and the Final Exam, each worth 25%, so students are evaluated on the full course rather than one test alone. When the course is completed, the transcript can be reviewed by Columbia Southern University as ITC 4302 – Database Design and Implementation, a named course equivalency.
The course gives students practical SQL and database design skills they can use to store, organize, and retrieve information more accurately in everyday work. At Columbia Southern University, that learning can apply toward degree plans in programs such as the Associate of Science and Bachelor of Science, where ITC 4302 – Database Design and Implementation may fit into the larger plan of study.
After completion, the transcript is sent for review and Columbia Southern University applies the course as ITC 4302 – Database Design and Implementation when the equivalency is confirmed. That named recognition matters because it identifies the exact CSU course in the catalog, which helps students see how the credit may fit into their degree plan rather than as an unspecified elective. CSU formally welcomes UPI Study students, and the transfer review is still subject to CSU’s overall limit of up to 90 credits, or 75%, toward the degree. For students in CSU programs such as the Associate of Science or Bachelor of Science, this provides a defined path for placing the course within the program structure.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear CSU transfer outcome and are working toward the named equivalency ITC 4302 – Database Design and Implementation. It can also help students who need to stay mindful of CSU’s transfer ceiling, since up to 90 credits, or 75%, may transfer. It is not the best choice for someone who only wants a broad introduction with no interest in having the course count toward a CSU degree plan.
