Titus Babczyński (1832 – 1910) was a Polish mathematician and physicist. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts in Warsaw, then studied physics and mathematics. In 1872, he was a doctor at the University of St. Petersburg. In the period (1857–1862), he was a professor of higher mathematics and mechanics at the School of Fine Arts in Warsaw and eventually the University of Warsaw (1862–1887).
