MySQL Tutorial » Select Query » AS 
2.11.1.As

Defining a new structural element (table or column) by aliasing an existing value.

A common use for this is to create a shorthand reference to elements with long names to make the SQL statements shorter.

SELECT <columns>
FROM <existing_table_name>
AS <new_table_name>

is simply a reference that exists for the duration of the SQL statement.

SELECT t1.first_name
FROM employee
AS t1;
