help a sophomore out!

Hello! I am a second year Mathematics Economics major and Environmental Science minor at UCLA. My GPA is along the 3.5. I have never had any experience with banking. I have however completed the bloomberg market concepts online course and have several unrelated work experiences. I am looking for internships in the summer (preferably related to investment banking). Any advice?
