Remarks
The college campus is the best thing about the college. It is not a place to pursue management for those who want to jobs specific to marketing, HR or pure corporate. Although students passing from here also get into these sector but this is not for what IIFM is known for. It is much more beyond that. It believes in serving the society and nature for what it has given us.
Course Curriculum Overview
It's is really good. It is very diverse. So In short one gets the knowledge of various field in this one course which also helps during the placements and also whenever the student want to switch to some other related sector in future
Internships Opportunities

College Events
There are innumerous events celebrated in college throughout the year be it all the major festivals or any event out of a sudden plan like Environment Literacy Campaign is a three day event which has been introduced 2 years back. Although it is not a flagship event of college but is an important one. But some event are yearly and are flagship like 1.Coalescence- which we can call the Business meet. Different people related to the different sectors come and talk to students, paper presentation takes place etc. 2. Kapltaru- Could be called a Cultural meet where students show their cultural talents like singing, dancing ,ramp walk, rangoli making etc Many other events like Monsoon nights to welcome the monsoon is also celebrated
Fee Structure And Facilities

Loan/ Scholarship Provisions
Scholarship is offered at the end of 1st year and 2nd year based on the performance in the whole year. Loan facilities can be availed from any bank. Most of the banks have this college listed in A category college so it's not difficult to get loan. Indian Bank also had it in A category last year and charge interest rate of 8.4%. Don't know if it has changed
