Abstract

The growth of any nation is dependent on the quality of its higher education all over the world. The growing expansions in the field of science, technology and other knowledge intensive structures are challenging the higher educational establishments all over the world. The success of academics is highly dependent on the capabilities of faculty and their intent to spread quality education. It is important for the Institutions that motivated faculty work and shape the future of their students as well as their own. The current study focuses to identify the employee motivators for joining a technical institution. Exploratory factor analysis was applied to develop the measurement tool for identifying factors motivating faculty to join technical institutions. Confirmatory Factor Analysis and Structural Equation Modeling were applied to identify the critical factors leading to Motivation to join technical institutions. This research can be an effective input to many technical institutions to reconsider their approach towards their faculty and work on the factors motivating them for assuring maximum quality in imparting education.
