Technological Education Institute of Piraeus (TEIPIR) (Greek: Τεχνολογικό Εκπαιδευτικό Ίδρυμα Πειραιά, Τ.Ε.Ι. Πειραιά), also known as Piraeus University of Applied Sciences (PUAS) (Greek: Ανώτατο Εκπαιδευτικό Ίδρυμα Πειραιά Τεχνολογικού Τομέα, A.E.I. Πειραιά Τ.Τ.), was a public higher education institute supervised by the Ministry of Education and Research. It was created by a special law in 1976 as a merging result of the Anastasiadis School (founded in 1947) and the Sivitanidios School (founded in 1957) and was established with the 1983 related law (Ν.1404/1983). In 2018 TEI of Piraeus (TEIPIR) merged with TEI of Athens (TEIATH) forming the newly established University of West Attica (Greek: Πανεπιστήμιο Δυτικής Αττικής).
