Science Magazine was a half-hour television show produced by the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation from 1975 to 1979.

The show was hosted by geneticist David Suzuki, who previously hosted the daytime youth programme Suzuki On Science. Science Magazine moved beyond the youth audience and was mostly broadcast during prime time, except for occasional sessions where the show was repeated at afternoon times.

The program featured news and features on scientific research and developments. Regular items within the show included "How Things Work" and "Science Update". Jan Tennant and Cy Strange of the CBC were the program's film feature narrators.

After Science Magazine was cancelled, Suzuki became host of The Nature of Things and remains that program's host today.
