Problem Statement

Consider the following requirements list:

 The university offers one or more programs.

 A program is made up of one or more courses.

 A student must enroll in a program.

 A student takes the courses that are part of her program.

 A program has a name, a program identifier, the total credit points required to graduate, and
the year it commenced.

 A course has a name, a course identifier, a credit point value, and the year it commenced.

 Students have one or more given names, a surname, a student identifier, a date of birth, and the
year they first enrolled. We can treat all given names as a single object—for example, “John
Paul.”

 When a student takes a course, the year and semester he attempted it are recorded. When he
finishes the course, a grade (such as A or B) and a mark (such as 60 percent) are recorded.

 Each course in a program is sequenced into a year (for example, year 1) and a semester (for
example, semester 1).
