“Woohoo Hooniversity is the center of all scientific research in the Beanbean Kingdom. Apparently it's southeast of the town... not that I've been there.”

—Beanish, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

Woohoo Hooniversity is a university in the Beanbean Kingdom that appears in Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga and its 3DS remake, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga + Bowser's Minions, dedicated to the study of laughter. It is located near Beanbean Fields. When the Mario Bros. arrive, looking for the Beanstar, Cackletta and Fawful have taken over the building, severely damaging it and transforming the research teams and faculty.

Cackletta and Fawful take over the university and transform many of its scientists into Laser Snifits. Mario and Luigi soon arrive to stop Cackletta after Prince Peasley mentions that she is there. Once there, they find that Cackletta has locked herself behind a door opened only by light. By positioning certain mirrors, they reroute a beam of light to open various shutters and the door. When Cackletta activates the Peach-bots that are supposed to contain Princess Peach's voice, however, they enrage the Beanstar, crashing it into the university's basement (this is because the voice they stole was actually Birdo's voice). Mario and Luigi arrive shortly after this happens, and Luigi drives Fawful into the ground using his hammer.

Mario and Luigi fight and defeat Cackletta, though with Fawful's help, she lives on as a spirit inside his Headgear. Before they finish off the brothers, however, Prince Peasley appears and knocks them out of the university and into Stardust Fields. The brothers promptly go to the basement of the university to collect the Beanstar. However, Popple and Rookie find it first, and prevent them from collecting it. After Popple and Rookie are defeated, a Peach-bot falls down and emits the voice again, causing the Beanstar to fly up into the air and out of Woohoo Hooniversity in rage, with Mario, Luigi, Popple, and Rookie in tow. They all fall off the Beanstar (with Mario and Luigi landing in Oho Oasis, Popple presumably landing in Chucklehuck Woods and Rookie, who remembers who he really is before landing in Stardust Fields) before it explodes into four pieces.

Block research rooms[edit]

One of the rooms featuring some ? Blocks from the previous Super Mario games and a ! Block.

Three rooms in the Hooniversity are dedicated to studying blocks. Block-like robot characters can be found here and explain each of the blocks. All of the blocks featured in the rooms are prototype versions of the blocks that do not give rewards when struck. A Bros. Block, Rally Block, and Random Block can be found and tested here, as well as four blocks from previous games in the Super Mario franchise. In the remake, an extra robot is added that names the blocks from previous games as Blocks of Nostalgia and describes them as "Blocks featured in past adventures."
