atas ﹙acaemic technology approval scheme﹚是来自非欧洲经济区﹙non-eea﹚的留学生在报读某些学科课程的研究生时，必须通过的一道附加的审查。
这项名为 atas ﹙acaemic technology approval scheme﹚的审查由英国外交部进行，申请人在得到大学入学通知书后，可通过英国外交部网站的网上申请表格递交申请。申请过程免费，时间为不超过3周。除了个人资料和课程代码外，申请人必须提交配偶、学历、雇主等资料。atas 是英国反恐战略下加强对外国留学生审查的步骤之一，所涉及的课程都属于理工生物等学科。atas 与就读院校直接挂钩，如果申请人转换院校，必须重新申请 atas。
什么是atas证书?
acaemic technology approval scheme ﹙atas﹚证书是在2007年11月1日推出的，是英国反对核扩散义务的重要组成部分之一。它的出现是为了控制有关大规模杀伤性武器及其运载工具扩散的知识和技术的传播。旨在保证那些申请某些敏感学科课程的学生不会获得潜在的关于大规模杀伤性武器及其运载工具扩散的知识。某些课程在学生申请签证时需要提供atas证书，所以大家要提前申请，避免由于没有atas证书影响签证申请的情况。
