Grad student need advice

Hi Everyone,
I am a graduate (M.S.) student in electrical engineering from a top Canadian school. Basically, I've been thinking since last year about going into Investment banking when I graduate. I've got a Bachelor degree from a non target UK university with a GPA of 4.00, no internship (I'll be doing one this summer, in Engineering) some not so relevant work experience and a lot of Extracurriculars. I'm in a sport team, president of a club, and member of the investment club at my university. Basically, my question is what else can I do related to finance, in order to boost my resume?
Thank you
