The need for more underrepresented minorities (URMs) in U.S. engineering faculty has been highlighted by numerous studies and reports. The Pew Research Center emphasizes the importance of faculty representation as a drive for minority students. Current faculty demographics mirror undergraduate demographics in the sense that White and Asian males are the majority for both groups in engineering. This creates a challenge for participation. Efforts to improve this situation are occurring in Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCU) and Hispanic Serving Institutions (HSI) and in programs such as NSF Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation (LSAMP) or the Alliances for Graduate Education and the Professoriate (AGEP). Also, the Garcia et al. model provides a framework for servingness that accentuates the exposure of Latinx students to Latinx faculty. With the intent to increase representation of Latinx in the professoriate, a team of researchers at a Southwestern Institution investigated the motivations of minority undergraduate students to become faculty and utilized Garcia et al.'s framework. Researchers posed the research question: What motivates URM engineering students to attend graduate school? A survey framed using the servingness model was created, and student members of the Society for Hispanic Professional Engineers (SHPE) were invited to participate. The survey also collected other demographic information such as participants' first-generation status in college. The survey's final question was open-ended to allow for free-response comments from participants. Preliminary findings of this investigation are corroborating the importance of minority faculty in increasing undergraduate students' motivation to pursue faculty careers. Other important aspects such as the culture of the institution (i.e., how it promotes the pursuit of graduate school transfer) are emerging as critical aspects that increase minority students' participation in graduate e
