Welcome to Bjarne Stroustrup's homepage!

I'm a Distinguished Professor and the holder of the College of Engineering Chair in Computer Science at Texas A&M University; you can find specific academic and educational information on and through my TAMU homepage. I also retain a link to AT&T Labs - Research as an AT&T Fellow.

I designed and implemented the C++ programming language.
