Bachelor of Business Information Systems

Experimental Design

Accounting Information Systems

Databases and the database technology are having a major impact on the growing use of computers. They play a critical role in almost all areas where computers are used.This course is an introduction to the principles, use, and applications of database systems. It assumes no previous knowledge of databases or database technologies. This course focuses on developing skills in designing databases for efficient data management and SQL programming for querying and using databases for various database applications.

Dig into data principles. Explore the use and application of database systems. Learn how to design and apply software solutions to meet requirements and specifications. Assess and compare software assets and IT systems for organisational and user fit.

Database Concepts

This subject starts with an overview of the architecture and management of database systems, and a discussion of different existing database models. The main focus includes relational database analysis, design, and implementation. This subject prepares students for subjects such as the final year industry project which require an understanding of database design and implementation. The students learn: relational algebra as the formal foundation of relational databases; relational conceptual design using an entity-relationship diagram; relational logical database design; foundation of normalisation; security and integrity; and SQL implementation of relational database queries. Students are required to design a database application that meets the needs of a system requirement specification, and to implement the system using a commercial standard database system such as ORACLE or POSTGRESQL. In addition, a selection of advanced topics in databases will be introduced and discussed.

Database Fundamentals

The widespread application of digital information systems in society today produces vast amounts of data. Appropriate management of this data is essential for it to be an effective tool for decision making and value adding. Introducing you to the concepts of database design, this subject takes you from the conceptual level through to the physical level of database management systems, developing your understanding of the techniques underpinning these systems. You will study relational databases and learn how to model, create and efficiently query them using Structured Query Language (SQL), using relational algebra to provide more generalised data and query definitions within relational database systems. Design strategies to avoid redundancy, concepts of functional dependency, normalisation and relational decomposition are examined. Exploring approaches for connecting external applications to databases, you will also gain an awareness of security issues involved with data access.

Database Management Systems

This subject is about Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and how enterprise systems fit into business operations. ERP Systems are becoming common in medium to large organisations as it removes the need to have a large number of individual computer-based applications. An ERP system integrates the various applications into a single package, increasing the efficiency of the organisation in delivering goods or services to customers. This subject is therefore viewed as a combination of business management practice and technology.

Find out where enterprise systems fit inside business operations.
Show how enterprise resource planning systems help medium to large organisations streamline their operations. Experiment with SAP software. Predict future enterprise system trends.

Intelligent Enterprise Systems

This subject provides an introduction to database design, implementation and management. Topics include data modelling, the relational model, SQL, logical and physical database design, database application design, transaction management, concurrency, recovery, security, database architectures and database administration. The theory material is complemented by practical work using common database management systems.Please Note: All students studying at Murdoch University will need to complete the compulsory unit, Murdoch Academic Passport (MAP100), which only takes 2-3 hours to complete online.

Databases

The digital transformation of business operations has led to an increasing demand for accounting and business professionals to develop information and communications technology (ICT) skills. This subject is designed to develop your ICT skills in the context of accounting practice. You will learn the impact of ICT on an organisation’s environment and how it is used to analyse data and support operational and management decision making. Systems design and development, database management systems, database design, relational database, responsible data management, and emerging accounting technologies are also discussed.

Much of what we know or do every day is informed by insights derived from data. We collect data on people, products, and processes to learn how they work. In this course you’ll learn the fundamental concepts and terminology associated with the design of experiments and analyses. You’ll also be prepared to enter the workforce using statistical methods with programming language, R. UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.  Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you. Access online academic and student support seven days a week, fit study around work and life commitments, view learning resources 24/7, and log in to the interactive online environment anywhere, any time and on any device. This is a first-year course from UniSA Online’s Bachelor of Data Analytics degree. Please note: you are responsible for completing any relevant prerequisite courses before enrolling in this course.

The rise of digital technology in the modern economy has seen the need for knowledge and skills in relation to Information Communication Technology (ICT) and Information Systems (IS) becoming crucial, central and critical components of any business related degree program.
