    Dear, If you are seriously focused to become a TV anchor, then I don't recommend you for going a full time Bachelor or master programme of media course. You can do short-term course of TV production and TV anchoring. Then, you just join as intern in news channel, so that you can get exact and real exposure of anchoring. Because I think, no institute will give you a real exposure of anchoring which is done by professionals in news channels. They exactly know the difficulties of this area and how to overcome all such things. So, real exposure can get through only internship in any news channel.

    Hello there,
    You can go for mass media or mass communication related to this field, these courses provide you the professional knowledge about the TV and media industry. While studying go for events as host, do stage plays etc. to boost up your confidence as TV anchor. Regards.
