CSE2004 - Database Management Systems Class Assignment - I
The document describes two assignments for a database management systems class. The first assignment asks students to design an entity relationship diagram and map it to a relational model for a university database. The requirements specify entities like students, departments, courses, and sections and attributes for each. The second assignment asks students to map a given entity relationship model to a relational model.

Solve the two problems in your notebook and we will have a
discussion in the next weeks Class.
1. Consider the following set of requirements for a
University Database. Design an ER diagram for this application and map the ER Model to a Relational Model The university keeps track of each student's name, student number, social security number, current address and phone number, permanent address and phone number, birthdate, sex, class (freshman, graduate), major department, minor department (if any), degree program (B.A., B.S., ... Ph.D.). Some user applications need to refer to the city, state, and zip code of the student's permanent address and to the student's last name. Both social security number and student number are unique for each student. All students will have at least a major department. Each department is described by a name, department code, office number, office phone, and college. Both the name and code have unique values for each department. Each course has a course name, description, course number, number of credits, level and offering department. The course number is unique for each course. Each section has an instructor, semester, year, course, and section number. The section number distinguishes sections of the same course that are taught during the same semester/year; its value is an integer (1, 2, 3, ... up to the number of sections taught during each semester). A grade report must be generated for each student that lists the section, letter grade, and numeric grade (0,1,2,3, or 4) for each student and calculates his or her average GPA. 2.
