To become an anchor, there is no specific course but your personality, communication skills and confidence. Mass Communication is a co related field not 100% specific to anchoring.
According to me, you should plan for any professional degree and do participate in college events where you can do anchoring through that you would get experience, recognition and confidence to speak in a public platform.
All the best.
