每年去英国读研究生课程的学生中，都有一小部分学生在办理签证的时候需要做ATAS的申请，否则签证肯定被拒。那么什么是ATAS呢?
ATAS全称Academic Technology Approval Scheme
学术技术审核计划
What is the Academic Technology Approval Scheme?
The Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS) was introduced on 1 November 2007. It is used to help stop the spread of knowledge and skills that could be used in the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction (WMD) and their means of delivery. This is common with other governments around the world.
The ATAS is designed to ensure that people who are applying to study certain sensitive subjects in the UK do not have links to WMD programmes.
这项审核计划，主要是英国政府在反恐战略下，为了确保外国留学研究生在英国与大规模杀伤性武器及与生化，航天航空，农业和工程等小部分敏感性的专业的知识和技术的传播没有任何关联而制定的一项审查。
Do I Need An ATAS Certificate?
Does your subject JACS Code begin with any of the following:
F2 Materials Science -F2
F3 Physics (including Nuclear Physics) -F3
H3 Mechanical Engineering -H3
H4Aerospace Engineering -H4
J5 Materials Technology not otherwise specified - J5
If, If Yes, You must apply for your ATAS certificate before you apply for a visa or extension of stay.
什么是JACS Code?
JACS Code:
To confirm whether you need an ATAS certificate, you will need the relevant JACS code that applies to your course. Your HEI will either include this on your official offer letter or will be able to confirm it separately. Please do not contact the ATAS Unit to ask which JACS code applies to your course. Only your HEI will be able to tell you this information.
Do not guess at which JACS code is relevant to your studies. If you register with the wrong JACS code it can not be changed. Please ensure you have the right JACS code before you start your application.
哪些专业需要ATAS认证呢?一般来说，大学的Offer上都会提醒，主要参考的是申请专业的JACS Code。Offer 上的专业一般都有这个代码。
涉及到相关专业的同学，可以留意一下申请的专业是不是这个代码
如果Offer上没有标明代码，可以联系学校获得。申请的时候代码千万不能写错。
如果你所申请的专业 需要提交ATAS申请请一定要在办理签证之前在线提交。拿到审核通过的结果方可办理签证。
ATAS的审理周期一般是10个工作日，在此期间，英国政府不接受任何的邮件询问审理进度。
