SUBJECTS 31061, 31271 and 32606. The prescribed book for this subject is:
Database Design, Application Development, And Administration by Michael V. Mannino. McGraw Hill / Ediyu.
The 2nd or 3rd edition is ok to use and the secondhand bookshop will accept these book editions to sell to other students.
The latest edition is the 4th, published by Ediyu... but this will be extremely expensive if bought locally, so IT faculty have not ordered many as they anticipate that students will prefer to buy it online or second-hand.
The way that IT have set up the subject means that students can still make comprehensive use of the 2nd or 3rd edition, and and thus will be more likely to buy them second-hand.
