The society is also responsible for the accreditation and supervision of learning and teaching in physics at the upper secondary and higher levels. Its main offices are located in the Faculty of Sciences of the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM), in Mexico City. The SMF is divided into specialized divisions, each of which is a sub-organizations focused on a particular area of physics. The SMF was established at a meeting held in December 1950. Carlos Graef Fernández was elected as the inaugural president.
