Help in school orientation

Hi everyone!
Hi everybody!
I'm a swiss student who is starting university next year and has to decide between two different kind of universities for my bachelor: One is the best university of engineering in Switzerland ( "Ecole Polytechnique Fédérale de Lausanne") and the other is the best university in business administration in switzerland ("HEC St-Gall").
I am interested in investment banking and corporate finance / M&A, therefore i would like to know what kind of education I should choose to maximise my chances to work in these financial activities.
Thank you for your advice.
Best regards.
Loïc
