Advanced Diploma in Database Engineering
The Advanced Diploma in Database Engineering (ADDE) provides broad-based learning on computing with additional focus on database engineering – storing, backing up, and ensuring the total data integrity of a database. A database engineer continuously monitors the health of a database and creates a data recovery procedure in case of loss of data. This in popular parlance is known as disaster recovery.
Essential information technology modules are taught to ensure students have a common knowledge of the database tools that will be used to support their understanding and applications of database systems. The curriculum provides the avenue for students to progressively build their project portfolio.
