The 1982 AIAW Indoor Track And Field Championships were the third official Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women-sanctioned track meet to determine the individual and team national champions of women's collegiate indoor track and field events in the United States. They were contested March 12−13, 1982 in Cedar Falls, Iowa at the UNI-Dome and won by the Nebraska Cornhuskers track and field team.

Unlike other AIAW-sponsored sports, there were not separate Division I, II, and III championships for indoor track and field. It was the last indoor championships before the AIAW meet was replaced by the NCAA Division I Women's Indoor Track and Field Championships.

At the meeting, Merlene Ottey won three events for Nebraska to lead them to the team title. World records were set in the 300 yards by Ottey and the 600 yards by Delisa Walton-Floyd.[1]
