How do I remote into my work desktop from home?

How you remote into your work computer depends on what operating systems are being used by your remote and work computers. You will need the computer name and/or IP address of the machine you are remoting to, so obtain that information before leaving campus.

If you are trying to remote from one Mac into another Mac, you will use Apple's product Back to My Mac. Apple instructions for setting up Back to My Mac

Note: Mason currently does not support remoting from a Windows machine to a Mac. If you believe you need to do this, contact the ITS Support Center, and they will see if accommodations can be made.
