What is an ATAS certificate and do I need one?

If you are a postgraduate student and will be studying or researching one of the areas listed by the Academic Technology Approval Scheme (ATAS), you must have an ATAS clearance certificate.

We advise you to find out if you need an ATAS certificate before applying for a student visa or extension. We will issue a CAS once you have received your ATAS certificate. Please visit the ATAS website for further information and a list of the courses affected. Please note that your CAS will also state if you require ATAS clearance.
