Abstract
In the very near future gravitational wave astronomy is expected to become a reality, giving us a completely new tool for exploring the universe around us. We provide an introduction to how interferometric gravitational wave detectors work, suitable for students entering the field and teachers who wish to cover the subject matter in an advanced undergraduate or beginning graduate level course.
