Female Robotics Team Wins Major Awards

Celebrating Spelman College . Welcome members of the Black Girls Are Beautiful Movement, Inc.

Our Purple Princess group, which encompasses girls ages 12 and under, will participate in workshops geared towards areas and professions that lack diversity such as robotics.

SpelBots is Spelman College’s all-female robotics team whose goal is to encourage students & young women of African descent to explore robotics and computer science. SpelBots made history in 2005 as the first all-female, all African-American, undergraduate team to qualify and compete in the International RoboCup four-legged robot soccer competition. Spelman College is the only HBCU to compete at the RoboCup international level.

Only one public middle school qualified for the state robotics meet: an all-girls team from Plano
