The CVs and letters of intent of 65 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral students from 20 different universities from all over Turkey were collected. The applications were evaluated by Kadir Efe Oru\u00e7, Head of Transportation Department of Izmir Metropolitan Municipality; Dr. \u00d6zlem Ta\u015fk\u0131n Erten, SUMP Izmir Project Manager; Hamidreza Yazdani, SUMP Izmir Project Coordinator; Attorney Utku K\u0131l\u0131n\u00e7, Legal Coordinator of the Department of Transportation; and the project’s consortium (MuCosulting).\u00a0\u00a0 The evaluations were based on four criteria: graduate status, department of graduation, computer programs and language skills.
