RIBA Part 2 Architect graduate - Work in Dubai?
Hello,
Last June i completed my RIBA Part II Architecture in the UK. I am hesitant in continuing my part III in the UK as i have no intention in working here for the long term. (2/3 years down the line i see myself in the US/Australia).
In the meantime, I am thinking a couple of years in Dubai could be a great experience for me. I have no knowledge of how western architecture graduates get on out there; would there be much of a demand for us? If anybody could provide me with some good sources to research this further, or a list of architecture firms that would be interested in such graduates - It would be greatly appreciated.
I'm 26 years old and I also have a degree in Architectural Technology. Between my studies I have taken 2 years work placement.
Cheers!

Yes there is a huge demand for western architects but not too sure about graduates. The fact that you have 2 years work experience will probably help you find a job. I will send you some names of companies in Dubai.
