  • Implement optimisation goals in the modelling phase
  • Administer professional database systems (installation, maintenance and adjustment)
  • Recognise database systems' performance problems and are able to fix them with according methods
  • Organise and control processes of database systems      

Methodological competence
The students:

  • propose concrete processing principles for special application classes
  • reflect on specific technologies and procedures with regard to their consequences

Social competence
The students:

  • Solve database system problems in a team

Self-competence
The students:

  • Acknowledge the limits of their ability to cope with pressure during the implementation and are aware of failures
  • Reflect their self-perception
