Work

Prior to Chalmers University of Technology, Birgit was a professor at California State University, Long Beach. Also she has completed a postdoctoral fellowship at the University of California, Irvine with Prof. Debra J. Richardson and Prof. Bill Tomlinson.[5] They developed framework called SE4S that supports the infusion of sustainability in the requirements engineering (RE) and quality assurance (QA) stages of software engineering processes.[5]

Penzenstadler coined the term "Software Engineering for Sustainability" in 2013.[6] Also, she is the main organizer of the workshop series “Requirements Engineering for Sustainable Systems” since 2012[7] at the International Requirements Engineering Conferences.[8]. She led the Resilience Lab at California State University, Long Beach during 2015- 2019 which focused on research that evaluated the properties of a software system in relation to sustainability.
