Her Ph.D. thesis is in the field of Atomic Spectroscopy experimentally investigating forbidden (in respect to quantum rules of transitions) spectral lines of Bismuth and ionized Bismuth, and reproducing the spectra via computer simulations that involve adjustment of atomic parameters in quantum theory of radiation. She served as a reviewer for the Journal of Optical Society of America.

Dr. Czerwinska taught undergraduate and graduate level courses in Computer Science and in Physics while in Ball State University (BSU). For the next 12 years she worked in the BSU Computing Services as educational software developer/designer and Multimedia Development group leader. She actively participated in the development of original courses that comprised the online education (or computer assisted instructions) offered by several departments (i.e. Nursing, Biology).
