Course List

Each tile represents a course I took at UML as part of my Bachelors in Information Technology. Some of these also contributed to a Certificate in Web Design and Development, which I completed in Fall 2021 with a 4.0 GPA.

Courses with additional material to show are marked with the book icon. This might include mockups of websites, examples of scripting, or graphic design projects. You can also see which things I've chosen to highlight especially, by going to the Projects page.

Course Description

It is almost impossible to think about creating any sort of modern web site or application without the use of databases and at least a cursory knowledge of how they work. Almost everything online uses a database at some level whether it is an ultra-complex system such as Facebook or Amazon.com, a prepackaged tool such as Drupal or Wordpress, or a relatively simple site which requires a log on to gain access to some content. This course is designed to provide a straightforward but comprehensive overview of what these systems are, how they work, and how they can be incorporated into your projects.
