Change Lives as a Science or Math Teacher

Each year, hundreds of new science and math teachers nationwide earn a degree and their teacher certification online with WGU. With bachelor’s, post-baccalaureate, and MAT options, you have a wide variety of options to choose from. There are many reasons more aspiring STEM teachers choose WGU than any other U.S. school:

  • Respected. CAEP- and AAQEP-accredited and approved for teacher licensure in all 50 states.
  • High-quality, low-cost. The National Council on Teacher Quality selected WGU’s secondary math program as the very best teacher certification program in the country—and not just among online programs! When they looked at both quality and cost, they came to a resounding conclusion: We’re also the #1 best value!
  • Achievable. Personalized pacing. 24/7 access to your program. One-on-one faculty guidance. Placement support for student teaching. Low tuition charged per term, not per credit (so graduating faster costs less). You can do this!
