Robogals is an international student-run organisation that aims to inspire, engage and empower young women to consider studying engineering and related fields.
The organisation is predominately run by university student volunteers, including at the global headquarters in Melbourne, Australia with the Leadership Team of Robogals based around the world.
Robogals volunteers are university students, including male and female, who teach school girls the basics of engineering; an example of this is through the use of robotics and programming using LEGO Mindstorms EV3 and NXT kits.
[11] In 2010, Robogals Perth went on an excursion to Kalgoorlie to demonstrate to school students as part of the seventh annual Science Awareness Festival by Scitech.
[24] The chapters operate as independent student clubs, with some degree of autonomy in deciding what activities to pursue, but must at the very least offer the core engineering workshop program in schools.
Since the founders' departure from day-to-day roles, Robogals has been led as CEO by Nicole Brown (2013-2016), Ami Pasricha (2017-2020), Morgan Marshall (2020-2022), and Janelle Dixon (2022-Present).
