Abstract	To reach the non-mobile majority, universities in many contexts, especially in the Global North, are investing in the internationalization of the curriculum at home (IoCaH); however, experience shows that top-down strategies are implemented differently across disciplines. It has been suggested that the role of academic disciplines, an under-investigated dimension, can explain this variation. Through a systematic literature review of nine disciplines, this study adds to the limited understanding about discipline-specific orientations towards internationalization. Findings confirm that there are indeed discipline-specific rationales for IoCaH as well as preferred internationalized strategies. These findings provide more detail about the exact ways in which disciplines vary in their orientation towards IoCaH which have historically been poorly understood due to too few studies that disaggregate findings by discipline. By understanding these nuances, university leaders, educational developers, administrators, and educators will be better equipped to assess discipline-specific needs and assist in the design, development, and implementation of an internationalized curriculum.
