Assume a university database's student table includes StudentID, Major, Age, MaritalStatus, and HomeZipCode indexes (all secondary keys). Assume the university wanted a list of MIS or computer science majors over 25 who were married and from 45462 OR computer engineering majors over 25 who were single. How can indexes guarantee only these records be accessed?
Assume a university database's student table has indexes on StudentID (the main key) and Major, Age, MaritalStatus, and HomeZipCode (all secondary keys) (all secondary keys). Imagine the university requested a list of students majoring in MIS or computer science who were over the age of 25, married, and from the 45462 zip code OR students majoring in computer engineering who were single and from the 45462 zip code. How can indexes be used to restrict results to to those records that fulfill this condition?
You are asked to design a database for an University. This particular university has multiple departments. Each department in that university offers one or more courses to the students. All the students are part of a certain department and they take courses in that department. A department has a name, unique number and chairman.

A course cannot be identified uniquely with the course number, but the course number is unique for each department. Students have given names, surname, unique Student ID, Date of Birth and the year they enrolled.

A student can take multiple courses but they are also allowed to drop a semester in that university by taking no courses. Construct an ER diagram using the requirements…
