This article documents groundwork for initiatives to enhance the international characteristics of the discipline of Accounting as taught within the University of Melbourne.A strong commitment to the notion of international curricula pervades much of the vision of the university, and strengthening the international dimension of the curriculum is identified as one of the means to achieve this end.Accounting is used as the practical context for the project, and the curriculum analysis suggests the discipline lends itself readily to internationalisation with respect to Management Accounting and Information Systems, but Financial Accounting and Audit & Assurance Services are not so straightforward.The study revisits the accounting curriculum at the micro level and challenges the reader to rethink the notion of an international curriculum by drawing on curriculum content and pedagogical processes with a view to producing a curriculum that has a greater international complexion.
