Historical nomenclature
The forerunner of the modern-day SCT was created in 1891 under President Porfirio Díaz and was known as the Secretariat of Communications (Secretaría de Comunicaciones); its first incumbent as secretary was Manuel González Cosío. In 1920 it was renamed to the Secretariat of Communications and Public Works (Secretaría de Comunicaciones y Obras Públicas; "SCOP"). In 1959, it changed names to Secretariat of Communications and Transportation, and finally, in 2019, it added Infrastructure to its name, to encompass and highlight one of its sub-organs, the Subsecretaría de Infraestructura..
