Industry Specialization

I’m a rising sophomore at a semi-target school, and I’ve gotten the advice many times to choose one industry in IB/PE and really learn it. Can I get some insight on how best to do this? For example, if I was to choose healthcare (don’t care to just an example) how would I learn it well?

Also what are some good industries to learn?
