I feel like that might be the wrong question. If you wanted to really study formal computer science you could learn things like model theory. If you want to study the analysis of algorithm run times you may want to study something like complex asymptotics. Do you want to study math for computer science or do you want to study math that helps in most applications of computer science (graph theory, linear algebra, etc etc).

Thanks for this. Edited the question a little to hopefully clarify things. I'm mostly going back to Coursera just out of pure curiousity, but was hoping I could take something that has some relevance to my career in Web Development (practical side, so more of your latter statement).

Sounds like Linear Algebra would be good to learn.
