One of the major thrusts in hadronic physics is to more fully
understand the internal structure of baryonic matter. The challenges
presented in understanding baryonic structure are large, in part due
to the complexity of strongly interacting system and the presence of
many broad and overlapping resonances. The CLAS baryon spectroscopy
programme has utilized the CLAS detector at Jefferson Lab in
combination with polarized beams and targets to study the states of
excited baryons, with the more recently built CLAS12 detector
allowing for better exploration of high-mass states. An overview of
the past and present CLAS Baryon programme will be presented.
