He attended Palos Verdes High School. Hogan had earned in 1976 his B.A. in astronomy, with highest honors, from Harvard University. Later on he earned his Ph.D. in astronomy from King's College at the University of Cambridge, England (1980).He was an Enrico Fermi Fellow at the University of Chicago from 1980 to 1981, a National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Fellow at Cambridge the years 1981 to 1982 and a Bantrell Prize Fellow in Theoretical Astrophysics at the California Institute of Technology from 1982-85.He was a member of the international High-z Supernova Search Team which co-discovered dark energy in 1998.He won the Alexander von Humboldt Research Award and an Alfred P.
