The $2.4 million hall, designed by Hollis and Miller of Overland Park, opened in fall 1971 and was dedicated Sept. 29, 1972; it was named for Raymond F. Nichols (1903-99), 12th chancellor (1972-73) and chancellor emeritus, journalism alumnus (1926 and 1928) and longtime KU administrator (1929-73).

Space technology was the early focus of the divisions at Nichols, but the building houses the Information and Telecommunication Technology Center, which includes the Radar Systems and Remote Sensing Lab, the Photonics Technology Lab, the Networking and Wireless Systems Lab, and the e-Learning Design Lab. The Center for the Remote Sensing of Ice Sheets, a collaborative research center comprising university, industry and international partners, also has its administrative offices here.
