What can you do with database management degree?

By Remington College Posted April 6, 2020

If you love technology, are 'type A,' and have strong analytical skills, you might enjoy pursuing a degree in database management.

Those who study database management might learn what databases are, how to organize and manage them, and how to keep them safe for a variety of organizations that rely on that technology.

But once you earn a degree in database management, what's next? Database management training could open you up to a variety of potential careers.¹

Database Administrator: If you become a database administrator, or DBA, you could be identifying user needs to create and administer databases, ensuring databases operate efficiently and without error, and even backing up and restoring data to prevent loss. Typically, database administrators need a bachelor's degree. DBA employment is projected to grow more than 9 percent from 2018 to 2028.² This is due to the increasing data needs of organizations in today's technology-driven world.

IT Manager: Another career you could pursue with a database management degree is IT, or information technology manager.¹ IT managers help plan, coordinate and direct computer-related activity for an organization. This can include ensuring the security of an organization's network, analyzing an organization's computer needs and planning and directing the installation and maintenance of computer hardware and software. As the digital age continues, our need for IT managers continues to grow. In fact, employment of IT managers is projected to grow 11 percent from 2018 to 2028.²

Data Security: A degree in database management could allow you pursue a career in data security as an information security analyst.¹ Because the frequency of cyberattacks has increased, so has the need for data security. From 2018 to 2028, this occupation is expected to grow nearly 32 percent.² Typical duties of an information security analyst include monitoring an organization's networks for security breaches and investigating a violation when it occurs, installing and using software to protect sensitive information and even conducting penetration testing to simulate attacks.
