Hughes has been at Cardozo since 2000 and teaches courses in intellectual property law, international trade and internet law. After he obtained his Juris Doctor degree from Harvard University in 1986, Hughes spent time as a Luce Scholar, clerking for the Lord President of the Supreme Court of Malaysia [1988-89] as well as doing policy work at the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) [1997-2001]. In 2009, the Obama administration tapped him to become a part-time adviser.
