Suzuki on Science is a Canadian science information television series which aired on CBC Television from 1971 to 1972.
This marked the debut of University of British Columbia science professor David Suzuki as a television series host and launched his career as a Canadian scientific broadcaster. This series on scientific subjects was produced by CBC Vancouver, with the initial pilot episodes reflecting Suzuki's specialty of genetics. Later episodes concerned other areas of science.[1]

It continued in a Monday 10:00 p.m. time slot from 12 July to 20 September 1971. The final series run returned to its original Sunday afternoon time slot from 9 January to 26 March 1972.
