This course covers a wide range of SQL techniques, beyond basic CRUD (Create, Read, Update, and Delete) operations in PostgreSQL. You will learn the specifics of aggregation, transactions, reading and parsing CSV files and inserting data into a database. You’ll also take a look at how PostgreSQL handles and indexes text data. Specifically, students will do assignments that alter table schemas, create stored procedures, construct advanced queries, explore sorting and grouping query data, and techniques for working with text in databases including regular expressions.

Great pace. Good introduction to SQL. Professor is excellent.

It was an engaging course, but I feel that SQL coverage was cursory and the haphazard explanation style of the instructor was not helpful. Still, much useful and practical information.

Excellent course with lots of non basic SQL and Postgres material. I especially liked the chapter on Regex in Postgres. Regex in SQL ... so so cool!
Very good Course , including loading from CSV, files from internet, Regex, Index and performance great tips from Dr.Chuck.
Slow, and fair amount of handwaving and lack of deep explanations. Suggested resource for learning more is to go to google and stack overflow? Anyone can do that so not what I would have expected from a university course.
Great content but the teacher rambles a little bit
The course content is challenging from the start. Excellent approach on the subject with great explanations and very complete support material. Many thanks to Charles Severance for his commitment to impart his knowledge and to Coursera for making this course available on their Learning Platform. Happy New Year.
It's always a delight to learn from Dr. Charles Russell Severance. I had a great time with the easy to understand videos and the hands-on exercises. This course has filled me with a lot of ideas about my next project! Can't wait to implement everything I've learnt so far!
This is a superb course. Prof Russell is really passionate about SQL, I think that's because he wants us to really understand how powerful SQL is. I've completed 2 courses so far, I'll definitely go for the entire specialization.
Introduce performance consideration in sql database and how PostreSQL tackle this with indexes. Provides inside of how regular expression can be useful in textual data. I can use the skills I learnt in my job.
This course was very helpful. Before taking this course, I only knew simple CRUD operations, but there is more information there. I got new knowledge. Thank you. Hope will take more Chuck courses.

Excellent course, I learned too many new things like hashes and regular expressions. I felt that some quizzes were much more complicated and required a bit more perceptiveness.

Amazing course. Lots of practices. Dr. Chuck makes it looks like it is easy. Very relevant techniques and concepts.
I liked course. It was amusing. The explanation and exercises some of then were defiant. But I could solved.
