For the first time, Mattel, which makes the Barbie doll have asked people to vote for her career, choosing among computer engineer, architect, environmentalist, news anchor and surgeon. The choice of computer engineer was announced at the New York Toy Fair.
Computer Engineer Barbie’s looks and accessories are designed with the help of “Society of Women Engineers and the National Academy of Engineering.â€
Computer Engineer Barbie still has her trademark cascade of blond hair, with a touch of hot pink. She wears a neon-colored T-shirt with a binary code pattern and carries a Smartphone and a Bluetooth headset. Her hot pink glasses and hot pink laptop looks very smart.
Computer engineer will be the 126th career for Barbie, who turned 50 last year.
