Abstract
We present an introduction to the Quantum Toolbox in Python (QuTiP) in the context of an undergraduate quantum mechanics class and potential senior research projects. QuTiP provides ready-to-use definitions of standard quantum states and operators as well as numerous dynamic solvers and tools for visualization. The quantum systems described here are typical for an undergraduate curriculum and range from two-state systems to optical interaction with multilevel atoms.
