I graduated with a Technology Management degree last year. I will warn you that you will get a different response from someone that graduated with the degree even as recent as 2 or 3 years ago than you will from a recent grad or current student. The degree has had some major changes occur in the last few years, and all for the better.
The degree is best for someone that wants a career in IT, but may not be sure what area. You will take classes in networking, Linux, cyber-security, database programming, and several others. The variety and quality of classes has improved tremendously since they moved the degree completely to A&M instead of splitting it between A&M and Blinn. Most professors were or are current industry professionals in that field, so you get an education from someone that hasn't lived in academia their entire life. The real-world experience they bring helps a lot and that shows up in the class. On top of that, the upper-level networking class is a Certified Cisco Networking Academy so students have an opportunity to leave that class with a CCNA certification. That can give a new grad a big head-start in IT.
Lifestyle is much more relaxed than something in Engineering or Computer Science. No need for upper level math courses and not a lot of time spent working on huge projects every night and weekend. As far as pay, that depends a lot on the area of IT that the student goes into. It's possible, but more than likely you are not going to start in the range of an engineer, but more like a comp sci student. $45k-$60k is probably about the norm. After a few years of experience doubling that is not unheard of. Again, depends on the area of IT they decide to go into. The major point of the degree is to give them experience in a variety of areas and let them choose their career.
The biggest positive is that the degree is growing and changing for the better every semester. There was only a buisness management minor built into the program when I went through, but they have added a cybersecurity minor and are adding others. There will also be some masters programs added in the next few years that tie into that degree.
The only negative things I can say is that it isn't as established in the professional world like comp sci and an engineering degree would. A lot of people and employers will look confused when you tell them what the name of the major is, but that can be cleared up by telling them about the classes themselves.
