- Geometry (Euclidean Geometry)

- Algebra (Linear Algebra)

- Calculus & Analysis

- Physics

Many university curricula include linear algebra and vector calculus. Physics is mandatory for all engineering disciplines.

Therefore, my suggestion would be to preserve the language of our universe and abstract thinking patterns (i.e. mathematics) and the rules of our universe (i.e., physics).

Those 2 are the absolute minimum, I would say, to rebuild modern civilization from scratch.
