Group for Undergraduates in Statistics at Harvard

The mission of The Group for Undergraduates in Statistics at Harvard (GUSH) is to create a unique and open space on campus for statistics enthusiasts to deepen each other’s understanding and empower each other to utilize the power of statistics to transform the world. By hosting events and promoting initiatives, GUSH aims to cultivate passion for statistics, create a supportive community for undergraduates, and provide educational opportunities for students at Harvard College. Throughout the year, GUSH will feature talks by renowned researchers, academics, and industry professionals in the field of statistics, as well as events including datathons, on-campus recruiting, workshops and tutorials, and outreach to surrounding communities to increase exposure to statistics at the secondary education level. GUSH also institutes an annual mentorship program that connects undergraduate students with graduate students at Harvard who can provide course and career advice, as well as general guidance for those who are considering pursuing a career related to statistics.
