David Jay Malan (/mlɛn/) is an American computer scientist and professor. Malan is a Gordon McKay Professor of Computer Science at Harvard University, and is best known for teaching the course CS50, (abbreviation of Computer Science 50)[2][3][4][5] which is the largest open-learning course at Harvard University and Yale University and the largest Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) at EdX, with lectures being viewed by over a million people on the edX platform up to 2017.[6]

Malan is a professor at Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied Sciences, where his research interests include cybersecurity,[7][8] digital forensics, botnets,[9] computer science education, distance learning, collaborative learning, and computer-assisted instruction.[10][11]
