HF quant roles

I'm a second year bachelor in Economics student in a target school in Europe.
I was wondering what master should I attend (EU/US/UK/whatever) if I want to pursue a career in a HF in a kind of quant role.
I really like math and analytical subjects, but I currently do not have experience in coding. Is coding necessary for these type of roles? What kind of math/statistics/analytical subject is needed?
Thanks a lot
