PhD is among the highest of academic degrees. But it will get you nowhere in the field of medicine, for example. The term "PhD" is used rather loosely much of the time. For example, a person wiht a Masters Degree in Music might say they are gong to stay at the university to "get my PhD", but their degree will be Master of Music, or some area of that discipline.

What degree do you need to have to teach college What if your undergraduate degree is from an unaccredited college but Masters' and doctor degree is from a accredited college?

If you interview, mention where you got your master's and PhD from (if they don't ask I wouldn't say that the school is unaccerdited, but the employer will probably still want to know). To teach college you need a PhD in either the subject you want to teach or in Education (pretty much any PhD's okay)....If you decide to teach high school or something else, then you would need a teaching credential (but not for teaching college).
