History

SASER was established officially in February 2002. The school uses the site and the abandoned school building of the Sekolah Datuk Abdul Razak (SDAR) which had moved to the new premises at Sungai Gadut, Seremban. Works on upgrading the abandoned school building have been carried out with the overall cost of almost RM 600 000. The upgrading works were completed on 30 March 2002.

On 1 March 2002, the first principal of SASER, Tuan Haji Md Azam bin Atan registered to the school. The first group of teachers registered on 18 March 2002 and the second group registered on 20 March 2002 - a total of 26 people.

The Pioneer Saserians

Only 122 students registered in 2002 through two intakes as the first group of students in SASER history. The second group was registered in the year 2003 stood at more than 300 people through four intakes until the end of 2004.

SASER Renamed

Sekolah Menengah Sains Seremban, which has been the country’s top residential school for Sijil Pelajaran Malaysia (SPM) results, has been renamed Sekolah Menengah Sains Tuanku Munawir. It is named after the ninth ruler of Negeri Sembilan, Tuanku Munawir Tuanku Abdul Rahman, who reigned from 5 April 1960 to 14 April 1967 and made educational gains in the state during his reign, and is the father of the present ruler Tuanku Muhriz. The declaration of the new name was made by HRH Tuanku Muhriz at the school's Dewan Putera.The name change also changed the school anthem,although the SASER acronym doesn't change.
