Herzog transferred to the University of Heidelberg in 1964, and completed his undergraduate studies there.[2] He received his Ph.D. with a thesis titled, Generators and Relations of Abelian Semigroups and Semigroup Rings[3] at Louisiana State University in 1969 under the supervision of Ernst A. Kunz. He is an expert in the field of commutative algebra and its interactions to other mathematical fields such as combinatorics.
