T.E.I. of Thessaly was established as a tertiary education institution in 1983 (under Act 1404/83), along with all Greek T.E.I.s which replaced the existent Higher Technical & Vocational Centres.
In 2001 (under Act 2916/2001) all Technological Educational Institutions were established as Higher Education institutions along with the universities, in compliance with the Bolognia declarat...ion. According to Act 3549/2007 Higher Education in Greece consists of two parallel sections:
The university section comprising all Universities, Polytechnics and the Athens School of Fine Arts
The technological section comprising all Technological Educational Institutions and the Higher School of Pedagogy & Technological Education.
Mission of T.E.I.s, as well as all Higher Education institutions, is:

• To produce and transmit knowledge through research and education and to promote arts and culture.
• To contribute to the shaping of responsible citizens, capable of dealing with all fields of human endeavour, based on their scientific, professional and cultural adequacy while having respect for justice, freedom, democracy and solidarity.
• To properly respond to meeting the social, cultural, educational and developmental needs of society with dedication to the principles of viable development and social cohesion.
• To provide the necessary environment for the development and dissemination of new knowledge and the promotion of new researchers, through cooperation with other research bodies in Greece and/or abroad, participating in the utilization of knowledge and human resources for the welfare of both the country and the world society.
• To contribute to the implementation of equality, equal rights and equal opportunities practices between the two sexes.

In order to accomplish their mission all Higher Education Institutions ought to assure and improve the quality of the services offered and disseminate all information regarding their activities to the community, ensuring the highest possible transparency.Tuition, research, studies and other services provided by Higher Education institutions are subject to continuous evaluation to the end of assuring and improving them in the framework of their mission.
The evaluation consists in the systematic, documented and detailed assessment, marking and recording of the work of Higher Education institutions, with the use of objective criteria, and the critical analysis and establishment of failing and divergences in connection with their academic profile, objectives and mission.
On the basis of the evaluation results the academic institutions and the state adopt the necessary measures in order to assure and improve the quality of the work performed. Subject to evaluation are the academic units (Faculty or Department) and through them the entire institution. The evaluation is carried out in two stages: the first one involves self-evaluation procedures and the second one external evaluation by a committee of independent experts. The internal and external evaluation procedure is repeated every fourth year at the latest.
