The NCAA Division I men's swimming and diving championships (formerly the NCAA University Division swimming and diving championships) are contested at an annual swim meet hosted by the National Collegiate Athletic Association to determine the individual and team champions of men's collegiate swimming and diving among its Division I members in the United States. It has been held every year since 1924, except 2020.

The meets take place in a 25 yd pool, except for the 2000 and 2004 editions, which were swum in a 25 m pool.

Texas have been the most successful program, with 17 national titles.
