Other: IIFM is a premier management institution for environment management and forestry. It is the best institute for those who do not want to pursue a career in the corporate sector. It provides career opportunities to those who wish to pursue a career in rural development, climate change, NGO management and forestry, though the institute offers you enough courses which would help you to land a job in the corporate sector as well. The IIFM campus is beautiful and lush green situated on a hill top. The campus offers very good facilities in terms of infrastructure but the crowd is not so great. And do not worry about getting a job, as the institute offers more than 100% placements every year.
