The 2011–12 Serie A (known as the Serie A TIM after its headline sponsors) was the 110th season of top-tier Italian football, the 80th in a round-robin tournament, and the second since its organization under a league committee separate from Serie B. It began on 3 September 2011 and ended on 13 May 2012. The league was originally scheduled to start on 27 August, but this was delayed due to a strike by the players. The fixtures were drawn up on 27 July 2011.

The league title was won by Juventus, winning its 28th official Serie A title or scudetto, and first since the 2005–06 Serie A. The team completed the season undefeated, becoming the first team to do so in a 38-game league season in Italy; Perugia were undefeated in the 30-game 1978–79 Serie A, in which they finished second in the table, while Milan were unbeaten and won the title in the 34-game 1991–92 Serie A.
