Create a hash table for students and another hash table for course..
For each record in the student table create a linklist that stores the list
of all the course in which the particular student in enrolled.
For each record in the course table create a linklist that stores the list
of all the students enrolled in this course..

Space will be O(m n)
m is the number of students and n is the number of courses

Time will be..

a) Return all students in a list.   O(m)
 b) Return all courses in a list.    O(n)
c) Return all courses in a list for a given student.  O(n)
d) Return all students in a list for a given course. O(m)

let me know if it sounds good..
