Emerging Architects and Graduates Network
Who we Are
The Emerging Architects and Graduate Network (EmAGN) is a membership demographic of the Australian Institute of Architects. EmAGN represents, advocates for and supports the interests of graduate and early career architects who are within 15 years from successful completion of a recognised course of architecture (master of architecture or equivalent).
EmAGN’s goals are to support and provide opportunities for emerging architects by creating events and initiatives which help grow connections within the industry.
What we stand for
EmAGN was established to encourage those within the demographic to contribute to the profession while representing and advancing the views of early career architects. EmAGN strives to advance,
- Inclusion
- Diversity
- Advocacy
- Career progression support
- Fair workplace arrangements / policy
- Empowerment through knowledge sharing
- A network of peers
Our mission
EmAGN exists to support emerging professionals and advocate for the value of architecture. We hold a range of events including education, social, advocacy, talks and tours for emerging architects and graduates and have increasingly been networking with other professions within the built environment such as the Young Engineers Australia, AILA Fresh and the Young Planners.
New members and new ideas are always welcome.
