There are characters who study the sciences and there are those who study magic. A Science Wizard is a character who is skilled in both. Normally magic and science are treated as two opposing forces but it should be noted that magic itself is usually a skill in fiction that people can learn if they dedicate themselves to it similar to scientific fields.
This can be justified in-universe by treating magic itself as a sort of science. In that case, it usually crosses over with Omnidisciplinary Scientist. If the magic is Sufficiently Analyzed Magic, this trope could also apply.
A Science Wizard can be expected to be a Badass Bookworm due to the combat applications magic often has in fiction.
Not to be confused with Techno Wizard, someone whose feats with technology merely seems wizard-like without delving into anything magical. Contrast Magic Versus Science, Science Destroys Magic and The Magic Versus Technology War. See also Magitek, a common result of this practice and Boxing Lessons for Superman, where a character learns mundane skills to improve their supernatural abilities.

X-Men:
Forge's mutant power gives him a natural intuitive for inventing mechanical devices. He also has some knowledge of Native American magic though he rarely uses it.
After a meeting with Doctor Strange, the time-displaced, young version Beast mastered a combination of science and magic which allowed him to return himself and his four teammates to the past for a few minutes. Given that the adult versions regained the memories their past selves had acquired, this implies that adult Beast also has those abilities.
Apocalypse is a scientific genius with knowledge in various areas including physics, engineering, genetics, and biology, all of which are more advanced than conventional science. House Of X reveals he has a formidable knowledge and command of sorcery which he puts to work in his position as adviser for the island's incarnation of Excalibur.

Bleach:
Sosuke Aizen, Kisuke Urahara and Mayuri Kurotsuchi are skilled in using Kido and both have applied their knowledge of spiritual energy towards scientific pursuits.
Aizen and Urahara both separately created the hogyoku, a device that allowed Shinigami and Hollows to acquire the powers of the other race and they oppose each other because of their different attitudes towards how the hogyoku should be used, or even if it should be used at all.
Urahara also figured out how to restore Ichigo's lost Shinigami powers.
Mayuri is an expert at body modification which he has used on himself and was able to create the Artificial Human Nemu, and spent decades experimenting on Quincies; his most significant fight occurs when he intervenes in the battle Uryuu Ishida and Renji Abarai are losing against the Espada, Szayelaporro. Like Mayuri, Szayelaporro is a Mad Scientist who uses Functional Magic to enhance his scientific endeavours, which also includes body modification. Their battle ends up being waged inside Nemu's body, ultimately leading to Szayelaporro's defeat via a unique drug that Mayuri had invented and infected Nemu's body with, just in case anyone ever tried to weaponise her body against him.
Uryu Isihida is a Quincy and can manipulate spirit energy. At the end of the series, he becomes a doctor.

He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983): The episode "A Friend In Need" conclusively reveals that Hordak was a trained sorcerer who turned his back on magic in favor of science. This is most likely a throwback to the original Mattel mini-comics wherein Hordak was an extradimensional warlock who was billed as Skeletor's own magical mentor.

The Chaos Dwarfs have kept their cousins' talent for engineering, but they also have access to magic. While mastering both at once is an extremely rare occurence, masters of either fields all have some dabbling knowledge in the other.

Dr. Druid is trained in the ways of the druids and has an M.D. in psychiatry from Harvard.
Devil's Reign: The Superior Four tie-in series has a version of Otto Octavius who is a composite of Dr. Octopus, Dr. Strange and Dr. Doom. As expected, he excels in both science and magic.
Doctor Strange: Before he became Sorcerer Supreme, Stephen Strange was a renowned surgeon. He still occasionally provides medical consultation.
Fantastic Four: Doctor Doom can rival if not match Reed Richards in just about any scientific discipline and is also a powerful sorcerer.
Thanos is a genius in virtually all known fields of science, having augmented his own physiology and created devices such as a chair capable of time travel and interstellar flight. He has also displayed some knowledge of the mystic arts — he once cursed Deadpool to never die so Deadpool could never be with Death whom Thanos was in love with.

Dungeons & Dragons:
Wizards have been the most frequently characterized as a scholar of some kind throughout the game's history. Most colleges and guilds dedicated to studying science are run by wizards. Certain Background options in 5th Edition allow one to apply this trope to other spellcasting classes.
The Artificer has this trope as a fundamental part of their class, combining arcana with applied science to make magic-infused constructs and gadgets, as well as magic items and potions.

Shovel Knight:
Plague Knight is a master alchemist/wizard who specializes in combining magic with mad science to make Stuff Blowing Up. He's addressed as both alchemist and wizard throughout the game, and he is the Order of No Quarter's resident magician. The arranged version of his stage theme is also entitled "The Science Wizard".
Tinker Knight is an inventor whose own work combines magic with mechanical engineering. Unlike Plague Knight, he isn't dressed or widely known as a wizard, though the two of them do respect each other as kindred spirits.

When Time began to catch up to him and his powers started to wane, he began seeking other methods to regain his abilities. Learning the ways of science, especially gene modification, he experimented on himself, eventually becoming the evil scientist and rival to Man-At-Arms; Modulok.

Shadowrun: While installing cybernetic implants and practicing magic does not mix, regular technology and magic has no such restrictions. Several colleges worldwide offer magical studies, and several scientific fields have been permanently affected by the return of magic to the Sixth World. Awakened can command extremely prestigious positions and salaries in several of them (especially medicine, biology and several forms of engineering) with the relevant education. At least one school of magic (Chaos magic) can use technological items as magical reagents for rituals if they are relevant to the intended goal (like using a wildlife documentary to summon a Beast Spirit).

Child of the Storm:
Doctor Strange blows more or less everyone out the water - the most skilled sorcerer ever to live, and quite probably the most brilliant medical doctor. He's something of an Omnidisciplinary Scientist and an Omnidisciplinary Mage. Given that he's actually 500,000 years old and can Time Travel to learn from the best, this is more or less justified.
Asgardians and other peoples of the Nine Realms specialise in Magitek, so tend to be this as a matter of course, though Loki tends to be most conversant in the mundane sciences. Atlantis, which they helped uplift, ended up much the same way (until everything went horribly wrong).
Dumbledore, meanwhile, is not only a master of transfiguration and alchemy (the most scientific magical disciplines), he's also essentially a hobbyist polymath. If there's a magical or scientific field, you can bet that he's dabbled in it in his spare time and corresponded with experts on the subject.
A significant number of members of the White Council spend centuries of their lives in academic study, and even the less academically trained Harry Dresden tends to explain magic in scientific terms when he can, even using a whiteboard to do so when teaming up with Coulson's SHIELD team.
Wanda Maximoff, having been raised and trained by the aforementioned Doctor Strange, not only understands her magical powers in scientific terms, but also her mutant ones, offhandedly suggesting that she's an expert in quantum physics, nuclear physics, and probability theory.
Doctor Reynolds is a villainous example, mixing science and magic. He's noted to have been ahead of his time - while his theories would achieve acceptance in the semi Unmasqued World of the second book if presented right, about twenty years earlier they got him laughed out of academia. A combination of wounded pride, stubborn persistence, amoral backers, and a terrible case of This Is Your Brain on Evil ensue.

After marrying Zan and becoming a druid protecting a forest in Jade Realm, her empowering of the life there has a distinct Magitek theme; for instance, Treants that look like Humongous Mecha, along with armed bears.

Masters of the Universe:
He-Man and the Masters of the Universe (1983): The episode "A Friend In Need" conclusively reveals that Hordak was a trained sorcerer who turned his back on magic in favor of science. This is most likely a throwback to the original Mattel mini-comics wherein Hordak was an extradimensional warlock who was billed as Skeletor's own magical mentor.
She-Ra: Princess of Power: There once was an evil warlock called Galen Nycroft who terrorized Eternia for years. When Time began to catch up to him and his powers started to wane, he began seeking other methods to regain his abilities. Learning the ways of science, especially gene modification, he experimented on himself, eventually becoming the evil scientist and rival to Man-At-Arms; Modulok.

Rifts: It is possible to create items where a semi-technological device is imbued with magic, and several of the setting's more advanced societies (such as the Splugorth, most of the power-players of the Three Galaxies, and most primarily magic-using nations) use a combination of magic, Magitek and tech with little to no distinction. In the Palladium Megaverse, extremism one way or the other is the wrong answer — pro-tech, anti-magic nations to be speciesist, militant totalitarian regimes, while pro-magic, anti-tech nations tend to be literal demonic hell-holes or Hidden Elf Villages.
