Abstract
Digital tools in higher education often promise support but rarely reflect the everyday realities of their users. This paper presents insights into what female STEM students expect from a supportive academic chatbot, aiming to better understand their needs and how such tools can be meaningfully integrated into their educational routines. As part of a broader context analysis, unstructured interviews were conducted with 30 female STEM students regarding their wishes and needs. Through thematic analysis, 71 wishes were extracted and organized into four broader themes, which we discuss and form into guidelines for designing academic chatbots. By conducting the first female-only study asking their specific question, we aim to include an underrepresented user group in the design of future academic chatbot applications.
