Rozmann's research centers on graphic design theory and practice, with emphasis on poster design, typography, and visual communication. Her doctoral thesis analyzed repetitive structures in works by Roman Opałka, On Kawara, and Benczúr Emese. She advocates for teaching methodologies that develop students' problem-solving skills rather than providing ready-made solutions, focusing on individual creative paths within constraints. Her theoretical framework connects historical design movements with contemporary practice.

Recent publications demonstrate consistent engagement with international graphic design discourse through biennials and poster festivals. She contributes significantly to Hungarian design through catalogs for the National Design Graphic Biennial and international exhibitions, bridging local practice with global trends in visual communication and identity design.

Rozmann mentors award-winning students in national and international competitions including Fundamenta-Amadeus, Worldwide Graphic Designers, and Transparency International Hungary. Her students excel in poster, logo, and identity design contests across Europe. She developed curriculum for design graphics studio practice, art camp internships, and complex design projects, emphasizing conceptual development and technical execution. Her educational impact extends through conference organization and exhibition curation.

She actively shapes Hungary's design landscape through exhibitions at institutions like FUGA Budapesti Építészeti Központ and international venues including Mexico City and La Paz. Her work with cultural institutions such as the National Széchényi Library and Magyar Posta demonstrates applied research in visual identity systems.
