IIFM Bhopal is a sectorial institute that can provide you with a great number of opportunities. To name certain fields- Development, MNC, Wildlife, Microfinance, Banks, Forestry. You can choose any one of the following and you would never end up being disappointed.

The highest placement package offered at IIFM Bhopal was 14 LPA in 2020. The salary you would be offered here would not be very appealing as it might not be as popular as the others. 

As far as loan is concerned and considering the entire atmosphere or IIFM, Bhopal- it would absolutely be worth it.

Everything depends on your interest ultimately. You are bound to feel burdened when you already are familiar with the fact that the job neither carries your interest nor does it pay you well.

The Indian Institute of Forest Management has courses with specialized choices of subjects related to Forestry. For pursuing a career in Human resources, IIFM may not be a very good choice, but it is always possible to do the same. 

The points below state how the institute is not quite suitable for an HR-based role.

• The curriculum and subjects taught are related to domains like environment, management of natural forests, development, sustainability, conservation, and livelihood, etc. So, even being a management institute, IIFM is not quite suitable for the development of students in general management subjects like HR, finance, sales, and marketing, etc.
• There are some subjects related to basic management but are mostly on the environment and its conservation. But, there are several students of IIFM presently working as HR managers of different companies. Therefore, it depends on the choice of interest of the candidate.

Therefore, choosing a career in HR being at IIFM is not a wise decision, but not an impossible one. It is the choice of the candidate as to where he/she wants to land in the industry.

Yes, any candidate can choose a career in wildlife conservation by doing a PGDFM course in IIFM Bhopal. There is no restriction for students to choose specializations and so, Conservation and Livelihood is a great choice for students who want a career in such specific fields. The table below gives a brief overview of the PGDFM course in IIFM Bhopal.

Key highlights:

• The courses offered lack expected importance and recognition in India. But, there is a great demand for forestry management abroad, where several career options are available.
• There is an excessive hype for an MBA degree in India and it is somewhat responsible for the lack of recognition of a PGDFM degree. But, a PGDFM degree from IIFM, Bhopal is sure to give success, if one works hard enough.
• It is not that there is no placement at IIFM Bhopal. Even being a lesser-known subject, there are several recruiters who visit the campus for placement of students from PGDFM.
• Students from IIFM Bhopal receive good opportunities through summer internships provided by several organizations, some of them being related to areas of interest like Wildlife Conservation, etc.

Therefore, PGDFM at IIFM Bhopal is definitely a good choice for students who are genuinely interested in career fields related to wildlife conservation, or maybe something else relevant to the course.
