The life-science content core
Human anatomy and physiology, molecular and cellular biology, heredity and genetics, and zoology: the highest-volume memorization load of any WGU science master's, completed on a weekly exam schedule.

Anatomy, genetics, and zoology turn WGU's biology education master's into a memorization marathon for teachers who work full time. We complete the content exams from human anatomy to molecular biology, deliver the science-methods PAs and lab-course work to the rubric, and clear your remaining CUs in 6 months or you do not pay. The master's package is $3,500 flat. Coursework Ninja is independent and not affiliated with Western Governors University.
WGU's biology education master's, formally the M.A. in Science Education (Secondary Biology), lets licensed teachers add a biology endorsement. The content load is memorization-heavy in a way the other science master's are not: human anatomy and physiology, molecular and cellular biology, heredity and genetics, zoology, and evolution, plus a curriculum course, methods PAs with laboratory safety certification, and a specimen-filled home lab kit.
The teachers who stall here are not bad at biology; they are out of hours. Thousands of terms, systems, and pathways do not memorize themselves between parent conferences. We complete the content exams, the lab and methods coursework, and the curriculum tasks to the rubric, on a plan built around your school calendar. Remaining CUs finished in 6 months, or you do not pay.
- Anatomy, genetics, and zoology exams completed
- Home-lab specimen coursework handled
- Methods PAs with lab safety certification finished
- 6-month finish-or-don't-pay guarantee
Every full package includes the written 6-month guarantee: we finish the remaining CUs under the agreed plan, or you do not pay. Packages: Bachelor's $3,000 · Master's $3,500 · both $5,500 · single assessments from $99.
Coverage
What do we complete in the WGU biology education master's?
Lab kit coursework
The biology lab kit ships real specimens and equipment to your home. We sequence kit-dependent courses early and complete the reports and safety work to the rubric.
Evolution and natural science content
The organismal side of the degree, including the evolution and general natural-science content your state standards lean on hardest, cleared as exams on the plan.
Methods and curriculum PAs
Science methods for secondary biology, with its three-dimensional lesson design and laboratory safety certification, plus the secondary biology curriculum course: produced to the rubric and revised until they pass.

Key courses in this WGU program
Course names below come from WGU's published program materials for this degree. Assessment labels reflect typical OA/PA patterns for the course type; exact task mix can shift by catalog year. Codes are shown only when verified against an official WGU source.
| Course | Assessment | Where students stall |
|---|---|---|
| Human Anatomy and Physiology | Paper (PA) | Early path course; good first clear on a weekly plan |
| Molecular and Cellular Biology | Paper (PA) | Early path course; good first clear on a weekly plan |
| Science Teaching Methods | Paper (PA) | Cleared on the weekly plan instead of drifting |
| Secondary Pedagogy | Paper (PA) | Cleared on the weekly plan instead of drifting |
| Preclinical Experiences | Field / clinical (you) | Live hours stay with you; we complete written assessments around them |
| Student Teaching | Field / clinical (you) | Live hours stay with you; we complete written assessments around them |
| Biology Education Capstone | Project PA | Final project; stalls when every other course is still open |

Certifications and transfers
Certifications, licensure, and transfer reality
Student teaching, preclinical experiences, demo teaching, or clinical/practicum hours stay with you. We complete the academic assessments and papers around those pieces, confirmed in writing at intake. Transfer credit varies by transcript. Our completion fee is separate from WGU tuition.
Career outcomes
What graduates do with an M.S. Biology Education
Biology teachers with the master's move onto the graduate salary lane and qualify for science-department leadership. BLS medians for the classroom destinations are below.
| Role (BLS occupation) | 2024 median pay | Projected growth 2024-34 |
|---|---|---|
| High school teachers | $64,580 | 2% decline |
| Middle school teachers | $62,970 | 2% decline |
Figures are U.S. national medians from the Bureau of Labor Statistics Occupational Outlook Handbook: 2024 median annual pay and projected employment change from 2024 to 2034. Pay varies by state, employer, and experience. What happens after a WGU degree: employers, salary surveys, and the already-employed vs career-changer split.
Bottlenecks
Where does the biology education master's usually stall?
What we see most from teachers adding biology:
- Anatomy and physiology's sheer vocabulary load abandoned twice
- The specimen lab kit waiting for a free weekend that never comes
- Molecular and cellular biology relearning stalled at the chemistry prerequisites
- Methods PAs saved for summer, then squeezed into the last two weeks of it
Only need one course finished? Single OA / PA / CU completion starts at $99. Message us the course code for a fixed quote. See full package pricing.
The plan
What does the 6-month biology plan look like?
Months 1-2
Chemistry foundations and cellular biology first, lab kit ordered in week one, first methods task submitted for early evaluator feedback.
Months 3-4
Anatomy, genetics, and zoology exams clear weekly against the plan, with methods and curriculum PAs running in parallel.
Months 5-6
Remaining content exams and PAs close out, revisions finished inside the window, buffer weeks protected. The finish date holds in writing.

Questions, answered
The M.A. track adds a biology endorsement to an existing teaching license. WGU also runs an M.A.T. track for initial licensure with clinicals and student teaching; either way, we complete the academic load and live classroom work stays with you.
A lot: anatomy and physiology, genetics, and zoology are vocabulary-dense even for strong science teachers. That volume is exactly why the plan runs on weekly exam targets instead of good intentions.
The master's package is $3,500 flat with the written 6-month guarantee. Stacking a bachelor's and this master's is $5,500. A single blocking course, anatomy and physiology for most, starts at $99 with a fixed quote first. Coursework Ninja is independent of WGU.
The written side, yes: lab reports, safety certification, and every task around WGU's mailed specimen kit are completed to the rubric, sequenced early so shipping never holds a course open.
WGU reports most M.A. track students finish in about 17 months self-paced. Our plans compress your remaining list into 6 months by running exams in parallel; the realistic date for your list is written at intake.
Coursework Ninja is an independent done-for-you degree completion service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Western Governors University.
