Georgia Gwinnett College’s campus can be seen from the air in this file photo. The school announced this past week that it will begin offering its first fully online degree program, which will be in information technology-software development, this summer.

College degrees traditionally require students to spend at least some time in a classroom, but Georgia Gwinnett College is trying something different.

The Lawrenceville-based school announced this past week that it will begin offering its first “fully online” degree, which will be available for information technology-software development majors. The school already offered an IT major that students could take in a classroom setting, which it will continue to officer, but the new online-only version of the degree will launch this summer.
