Need your advice

Hello everyone. I am fond of engineering and programming, and I was very interested in one company. And now I wonder if she (https://dragonflyaerospace.com/mantis-imager-heads-to-space-with-hyperactive/) cooperates with any educational institutions?
I would like to enter and get additional education having the opportunity to work (if I may say so) with my idol.
Or maybe you know something similar.
I will be grateful for feedback.

Do you want Dragonfly per se, or satellite based imaging? Planet, Google, and Umbra all do that, as I’m sure do others. It’s unlikely that you’re going to find a US school working with a small South African company.

Or, is it nano satellites that you’re into? LOTS of schools do that. I’d certainly start by looking at Cal Poly though. They have a CubeSat club like many schools, but they also have a full student staffed second club dedicated to maintaining the standard, producing launchers (PPOD), and scheduling flights. CubeSat was invented there.

Say more of what you’re after.

I still mean, to begin with, the satellite based imaging.
My problem may be that I have not been a schoolboy or a student for a long time, and I absolutely do not know how to approach this correctly as an adult, conscious, but not having a special education and connections.

@JackWhite Have you seen free resources and webinars, such as offered by NASA?

Did you hear about the conference a couple months ago? Opportunities for students and young professionals, too.
