This led me to do a Masters in Computer Science specializing in the field of data management. During my study, I understood the concepts of DBMS which provides a robust and efficient way to manage and explore data. Through courses such as Database Systems (ITCS 6160), Knowledge Discovery in Databases (ITCS 6162) and Knowledge Based Systems (ITCS 6155), I gained sufficient theoretical and practical knowledge about the importance of good data organization , good techniques for building an efficient database. management system and to what extent the data can be managed.2. Data Management2.1 DatabaseAs defined by Kroenke, database is an integrated, self-describing collection of related data. Data is stored uniformly, usually in the same place, for example on a single physical computer. A database maintains a description of the data it contains and the data has some relationship with other data in the database...... middle of paper ......gem to level topics advance. I enriched my knowledge on the use of databases, knowledge discovery in databases and the role database plays in maintaining authentication, confidentiality and integrity. Courses like KDD and KBS were difficult because the majority of KDD concepts are still being researched and have not yet been put into practice. References are mentioned below. Apart from classes, I had the chance to interact with many students and professors, which helped me gain a lot of knowledge and self-confidence.5.
