After a year of operation, which saw the graduation of 60 women, the school was expanded to a two-year structure and renamed to Puntland Community College. In 2004, in cooperation with the United Nations Development Program and USIU Nairobi, PCC was expanded to include four-year programs. It was also renamed to Puntland State University (PSU).

Degrees offered at PSU include:
- Bachelor of Science in Business Administration (BBA): two- and four-year programs
- Bachelor of Science

The school is participating in the Puntland Resource and Service Center, which began construction in January 2007 in Garowe.
