There are two ways of doing it,


One is using a program built into your mac, called "Boot Camp"

The other is using a program called "Parallels", which you will have to buy

Boot Camp requires a reboot to switch from OSX to Windows, where as Parallels will run both operating systems simultaneously. Parallels will consume more processing power.
