The 1979 NCAA Division I Golf Championship was the 41st annual NCAA-sanctioned golf tournament to determine the individual and team national champions of men's collegiate golf at the University Division level in the United States.
The tournament was held at the Bermuda Run Country Club in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, hosted by Wake Forest University.
Ohio State won the team championship, the Buckeyes' second NCAA title and first since 1945.
