Milan Dzubák graduated from the Slovak Technical University in Bratislava SVST in 1951 and worked as an assistant in its Institute of Irrigation and Drainage until 1959. He was awarded his PhD in 1964. Dzubák then joined the Institute of Hydrology and Hydraulics of the Slovak Academy of Sciences UHH-SAV and from 1974 to 1981 was its director. From 1981 to 1991 he was a professor of hydrology and water resources at the SVST.

\

In research projects Dzubák was mainly active in problems of probability of maximum discharge and statistical methods in hydrology. He also worked on the probabilistic analysis of extreme values in hydrologic phenomena and became an expert in hydrologic questions of his country. Some of his papers were published in the Czechoslovakian main hydraulics journal Vodohospodársky Časopis, a journal founded in 1953 and continuing until these days. He authored and co-authored a number of publications mainly in Slovak and lectured also externally at the Universities of Bratislava and Nitra. He was active in the natural sciences section of the Czechoslovak Commission for cooperation with UNESCO and chaired the committee on Hydrosphere and its processes. Dzubák received a number of state and Academy prizes and honors.
