# 1982 AIAW Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships

The 1982 AIAW Division I Outdoor Track And Field Championships were the 14th annual Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women-sanctioned track meet to determine the individual and team national champions of women's collegiate outdoor track and field events in the United States. They were contested May 27−29, 1982 in College Station, Texas by host University of Texas at Austin. The 1982 edition was the final AIAW track and field championship, as beginning that year women's track and field championships were added to the National Collegiate Athletic Association.
The first women's 1982 NCAA Division I Outdoor Track and Field Championships were held just two days later, preventing some teams from taking part. Lamar University's Midde Hamrin was called the outstanding performer of the meet for winning the 5000 m and 10,000 m. The University of Texas at Austin won the team title by 38 points over the University of California at Berkeley.
