Course-related terminology used at the University of Otago:

 Course: The collection of papers for which a student
is enrolled in a particular semester or year.

Paper: The smallest individual academic components of a course (and thus of a Programme).

Papers are characterised by:

1. being recorded as separate entities on an academic record

2. having some form of result attached to them

3. generating a definable
portion of the tuition fees payable.

Thus the Otago term 'paper' is equivalent to the US term 'course'.
