This is a list of Big East Conference men's basketball regular season champions. There are no tie-breakers for the Regular Season Championship, so any teams tied for first at the end of the season share the Championship.
From the 1995–96 season, through the 1997–98 season, and again from the 2000-01 through 2002–03 seasons, the Big East was divided into two divisions, each awarding Regular Season Championships to the teams with the best records in their respective divisions.
From 1995-98 through 1997-98 the two divisions were unnamed and consisted of one six team division and another with seven teams. From 2000-01 through 20002-03 the divisions were named "East" and "West".
