Explanation of Solution

Crow’s Foot ER diagram for Tiny College:

The following data model shows the solution for the given question.

Explanation:

In Chapter 4, you saw the creation of the Tiny College database design, which reflected such business rules as "a professor may advise many students" and "a professor may chair one department." Modify the design shown in Figure 4.35 to include these business rules: An employee could be staff, a professor, or an administrator. A professor may also be an administrator. Staff employees have a work-level classification, such as Level I or Level II. Only professors can chair a department. A department is chaired by only one professor. Only professors can serve as the dean of a college. Each of the university's colleges is served by one dean. A professor can teach many classes. Administrators have a position title. Given that information, create the complete ERD that contains all primary keys, foreign keys, and main attributes.

1. Create an EER diagram to show the following information about a university database:    Professors have an SSN, a name, an age, a rank, and a research specialty.  Projects have a project number, a sponsor name (e.g., NSF), a starting date, anending date, and a budget.  . Graduate students have an SSN, a name, an age, and a degree program (e.g., M.S.or Ph.D.).  . Each project is managed by one professor (known as the project’s principalinvestigator).  . Each project is worked on by one or more professors (known as the project’s co-investigators).  . Professors can manage and/or work on multiple projects.  . Each project is worked on by one or more graduate students (known as the project’sresearch assistants).  . When graduate students work on a project, a professor must supervise their work onthe project. Graduate students can work on multiple projects, in which case they willhave a (potentially different) supervisor for each one.  . Departments have a department number, a department…
