The course will provide an introductory look at topics which are fall under the remit of modern experimental hadron physics, generally considered under one of two broad categories: hadron structure and hadron spectroscopy. Lectures will introduce concepts which are studied in experiments today, from the probability distributions which can be used to 'image' protons and neutrons, to the searches for exotic states lying at the extremes of QCD.
