Abstract :
This paper reports on the activities of three research groups at UMIST pursuing work in the area of microsensors. Such work is by definition multi-disciplinary and places enormous demands on those engaged in it. This being so, it is reasonable to begin by asking the question "is it necessary to use microminiature techniques?". In presenting the examples of UMIST activities we will attempt to pose that question and justify the reasons for choosing microminiature dimensions at the outset
