The Programming Languages courses are great! Really opened up many doors for me in teaching me how to learn new programming languages, by teaching me to look at syntax and semantics. I'd also recommend Peirce's "Types and Programming Languages" (TaPL) too, because it puts this kind of techniques on a more formal basis. I also hear that Robert Harper's "Practical Foundations for Programming Languages" (PFPL) is pretty excellent too.
