We are a group of students united by our passion for Data Science, Machine Learning, and the programming language R in general. Our aim is to fix the lack of representation of the R User Community at the University of St. Gallen and its vicinity. R User Groups already exist across Switzerland, for instance in Zurich, Lucerne and Bern (see map), so it’s time St. Gallen, as a hub for students, got one as well.
