Sometimes the situation may demand to change the MYSQL date format, when we are using select query.
MYSQL has builtin functions for this purpose, take a look at example below
SELECT DATE_FORMAT(yourColumnName, "%d/%m/%Y %H:%i") FROM yourTableName WHERE yourCondition;
From the above example, the date format of your column will be changed as per what you have mentioned (18/05/1993 19:20). You can play around with the format to achieve results as per your need. For example the format can be changed as follows.
From
"%d/%m/%Y %H:%i"
To
"%Y-%m-%d %H:%i"
Now the format will be as follows 18-05-1993 19:20.
You can use the following options too
%Y = year in 4 digit (example : 2020)
%y = year in last 2 digit (example : 20)
%m = month in 2 digit (example : 05)
%M = month in words (example : may)
%d = day in 2 digit (example : 01)
%D = day in words (example : Monday)
%H = hour in 24HR format
%h= hour in 12HR format
