Career Postwar Poland's newly created universities needed experienced professors and scholars. In 1919, Peretiatkowicz accepted a call from the University of Poznań to organize, as a professor and dean, a new legal-economic faculty. Two years later he became the Vice-Rector of the university and finally its Rector between 1936 and 1939. From 1930, he was also a director of the private Higher School of Commerce until 1938.

Studies Peretiatkowicz began law studies in Warsaw in 1902 and continued in Berlin, Lviv (Lwów), and Cracow (Kraków). He received a doctorate degree from the Jagiellonian University in Cracow in 1909. From 1909 to 1914, Peretiatkowicz continued his post-doctoral studies in Paris, Geneva, and Heidelberg.

As a student, Peretiatkowicz published his first legal and philosophical studies. In 1908, he received an award from the Gazeta Sądowa Warszawska (Warsaw Judicial Journal) for his article on legal philosophy and comparative methodology: Filozofia Prawa a Metoda Porównawcza (Legal Philosophy and Comparative Method). In the same year, Archiv für Rechts – und Wirtschaftsphilosophie published his article on Polish philosophy of the twentieth century: Die polnische Rechts und Wirtschaftsphilosophie im XX Jahrhundert. In 1914, he wrote an insightful study on the legal aspect of Jean-Jacques Rousseau's philosophy (Filozofia Prawa J. J. Rousseau’a, Cracow, 1913). This was a new addition to a large body of studies that, until then, were mainly concerned with the political component of Rousseau's philosophy.
