Existe-t-il un autre moyen de créer des contraintes lors de la création d'une table SQL ?

Vous pouvez le faire avec un créer un schéma déclaration :

create schema authorization [schema name]
create table department 
(   code      varchar2(3) primary key,
    name      varchar2(40)  not null,
    chair     varchar2(11),
    constraint departmentChairFk foreign key(chair) references facultyStaff(staffId) on delete set null
)
create table facultyStaff 
(   staffID     varchar2(5) primary key,
    dob     date,
    firstName   varchar2(20),
    lastName    varchar2(20),
    rank        varchar2(10),
    deptCode    varchar2(3),
    constraint rankValue check (rank in ('Assistant', 'Associate', 'Full', 'Emeritus')),
    constraint facultyDeptFk foreign key (deptCode) references department (code)
)
create table student 
(   studentId   varchar2(5) primary key,
    dob     date ,
    firstName   varchar2(20),
    lastName    varchar2(20),
    status      varchar(10),
    major       varchar(3),
constraint statusValue check (status in ('Freshman', 'Sophomore', 'Junior', 'Senior',  'Graduate')),
    constraint studentMajorFk foreign key (major) references department (code)
);
