IB internships as an engineering student

Hi all, for background let’s start with this. Currently a sophomore at a small non-target school in Chicago. I am majoring in industrial engineering. I was wondering other than cold emailing, what are someways I can break into an IB internship as an engineering student, my gpa is decent, and I have had previous internships but they were engineering related. Also is it too late to apply for summer 23 internships? Should I focus all my efforts on summer 24?

Thank you
