That really depends on the industry you are looking to join. If looking to join a eng the lack of an external internship is not particularly important as that's your course of study and its not that competitive unless you are looking for grad programmes at major MNC.
However if like a majority of people in this sub forum you have developed a sudden interest in the finance industry while studying in university, then yes the lack of an internship will deter you from getting into the industry.
