Database Fundamentals is an introduction to how data is organized, stored, and managed in computer systems. It covers the basic ideas behind databases, including tables, records, fields, relationships, SQL, and the rules used to keep data accurate and secure. The course also shows how different database designs are used in real settings, from simple relational databases to other common models.
Database Fundamentals is delivered as a self-paced online course with video lessons, quizzes, assignments, and a final exam. The grading is 20% quizzes, 30% assignments, and 50% the final exam, so steady progress matters throughout the term. When you complete the course and send the transcript, University of Arkansas Grantham recognizes it as IS320 – Database Fundamentals.
The course builds practical knowledge of how data is organized, checked, and protected, which is useful in day-to-day work with records, reports, and business systems. At University of Arkansas Grantham, that learning can count toward degree planning in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or the Bachelor of Business Administration. Because the credit is recognized as IS320 – Database Fundamentals, it can support progress in a UAG plan that includes database-related coursework.
After you finish the course, your transcript is sent for review and University of Arkansas Grantham applies the credit as IS320 – Database Fundamentals when the coursework matches. That named recognition matters because it places the credit into a specific course slot in the UAG catalog, which is stronger than an unspecified elective and can help with degree planning. UAG awards transfer credit course by course for equivalent coursework with a grade of C or better, and its overall transfer ceiling is 90 credits. For students in programs such as the Associate of Applied Science or Bachelor of Business Administration, that can make the course a direct part of the degree map rather than an extra requirement.
This course is a good fit for students who want a clear transfer path to University of Arkansas Grantham and need a named course equivalency rather than a general elective. It is also useful for students who are watching transfer limits closely, since UAG allows up to 90 credits, or 75%, to transfer and awards credit course by course for equivalent work with a grade of C or better. It is not the right choice for someone who needs a guaranteed fit without meeting UAG’s equivalency and grade requirements.
University of Arkansas Grantham, part of the University of Arkansas System, has been DEAC-accredited since 1961 and accepts ACE-recommended credit. Transfer credit is awarded course-by-course for equivalent coursework with a grade of C or better.
