In 1906 he gained his Ph.D. In 1919 he became a professor of the Batory University in Vilna, then at the Nicolaus Copernicus University in Toruń. He spent the last part of his life in Vilnius.
he spent most his life performing astronomical research, and published over 200 papers. His topics of focus were on the gravitational perturbations of minor planets, movements of stellar groupings, and photographic photometry.
Dziewulski crater on the Moon is named after him, as is the Wladyslaw Dziewulski Planetarium in Toruń.
