[en] These lectures, intended mainly for undergraduates, contain a very short
introduction into perturbative QCD. We introduce the QCD lagrangian, outline
how QCD is quantized and renormalized, and as an example describe the
calculation of the elastic two-gluon scattering. We then discuss the physics
behind the parton model of hadron collisions, with the important issues of
the infrared safety and factorization. We end with a short description of how
different hadronic final states are searched for and studied at hadron colliders.
