The hard-skills are relatively straightforward.  You will need a very strong background in statistics and financial engineering.  Many quantitative analysts are PhD's in STEM fields.  Having that knowledge will allow you to understand the basis for technical trading strategies.

The soft-skills are the opposite end of the spectrum.  In order to get anywhere in the financial world you must be able to write, present, speak to groups, interview, dress properly, etc.  These come through experience and activities that you do while attending a business-oriented program.  

Having the combination of both the technical knowledge and the soft-skills will allow you to have a chance at becoming part of a hedge fund.

Keep in mind that regardless of what degree you pursue, there is no replacement for experience.  Having a job in an investment bank, a wealth manager, a mutual fund, or another financial institution may be a possibility you should consider in addition to just applying directly to hedge funds.
