Shanghai Internship

Some background information about me, I'm an international freshman from Australia studying in the U.S. at a semi-target school.

I found an internship opportunity in Shanghai for Commonwealth Bank in private wealth management/retail banking this summer. I'm looking to pursue a career in investment banking/trading, or potentially management consulting.

Although not directly related to investment banking/ trading, I was wondering I should take this internship opportunity? My other alternative is doing research in computer science at university.

Those who can, do. Those who can't, post threads about how to do it on WSO.
