Elizabeth teaches a pedagogical course for Ph.D. students (who act as graduate teaching assistants) at KTH. Having a background in teaching English for Specific Purposes, she has also been involved in KTH's Pre-sessional English for Masters Study. Her present position at the Department of Learning in Engineering Sciences has provided her with opportunities to be involved in areas related to academic development. In addition to academic responsibilities, she acts as administrative support to continuing education courses (lifelong learning) at the Unit Digital Learning.

Together with European partner universities, Elizabeth has been involved in designing a programme for multicultural and multilingual competencies for staff, and has been involved in a SEED project to disseminate knowledge of Open Educational Resources (OER).

Her work in grassroots initiatives includes topics such as learning in higher education, open educational resources, internationalisation, curriculum agility, integration of sustainable development in teaching, digitalisation in higher education, communities of practice, and language policy. She is particularly interested in topics that concern the development of young academic staff within Engineering Education.

Elizabeth coordinates the KTH Enhancing Higher Education programme. She participates in EU projects - UNITE! (the University Network for Innovation, and Technology and Engineering), IDOCOS (Innovative Doctoral Courses for Sustainability), and Nordic Engineering Hub (NordEnHub). She was also part of the early stages of a SIDA-Bolivia project.
