What kind of internships should I seek out as a Business-Economics Major?

Hello, I am currently a business-economics major at the University of California-Los Angeles, and I am looking for internships for the upcoming summer. Also looking to minor in accounting. As of now, I'm a bit unsure of what internships I should be looking for as I want to get internships that would hopefully do with my major in the future. However, I'm lost as to what careers or internships are related to my major. If anyone could give some recommendations I would appreciate that extremely.
