Student blog content ideas

So I've written an article about why you should own your own blog as a student, but now I'm here to give you some tips and inspiration on what kind of content to write! Of course, it depends on what type of blog you are aiming for and what topics you'd like to talk about, but here are some general ideas!


1. News content 

This is especially relevant if you'd like to pursue a career in journalism or a related field. Perhaps gather up some newsworthy content and write about it. Maybe your favourite band has released a new album and talk about how great (or maybe not so great) it is. Maybe an interesting news story has come up and you'd like to give your opinion on it. Also, bonus points if you can write unique pieces that no one else may have written, and be sure to put a creative spin on pieces that you write!

You could also interview some people that have an interesting story to tell whilst reporting any news!

2. What's it like to be a student? 

Maybe you want to give advice to fellow students or starting students. Perhaps what it's like to be an international or mature student. Or, you could talk about what you enjoy about being a student or what a day is like for you. Can you recommend some stationary or useful websites? It could really help others students out there and show off your writing skills.

3. Experiences 

Is there a time when you went out with your friends and had an amazing time that you can positively talk about? Did you travel a lot in your gap year or did you overcome some challenges? I think experience posts are interesting, especially when your audience can relate to them.

4. Recipes 

Are there some quick and easy recipes you could publish to help other students or anyone who has some spare time on their hands at the moment? You don't have to be a professional but putting out some recipes could help and inspire many students - I know I would've needed them!

5. Talk about your goals and professional experiences 

Think about a list of things you'd love to achieve this year or talk about how you felt lost on your career path and managed to pick yourself back up. Maybe talk about a work placement you really enjoyed and what you did/ found so enjoyable. It will be really great to look back at these posts in the future :)

How to improve your wellbeing

Photo by  Natalie  from  Pexels I have always been someone to love talking about the importance of focusing on and improving your own mental health and well-being in order to help others. In today's blog post, I would like to share a few actions you can take in order to make improvements to your well-being overall. I am hoping to ensure this is beneficial for all! Enjoy! Take everything one day and one step at a time According to the World Health Organisation (WHO), stress is a global health epidemic. It is very common (and of course completely normal) for us to have an overwhelming amount of stress built up in our heads over certain aspects of everyday life. Someone once told me to just breathe and take everyday as it comes, rather than trying to reach perfection in a day. So, if you have 5 long essays due all in the month for example, focus on them one by one. Perhaps break down the word count instead of trying to write the essay from beginning to end. I had a...

Profile Interview: A life of a successful physics professor

Photo by  Ivy Barn  on  Unsplash Sat comfortably in the quiet dining room of my small village house, professor of medical physics, Angela Newing describes how wonderful her career journey has been and the privileges she has had along the way. She speaks in a tone that instantly hints the hard work and dedication she has put into her career along the years, mostly looking down at the table and taking herself back to the very beginning. Now living in Stroud, Gloucestershire, she tells me about working in a time when women were perhaps not encouraged to enter the world of science. Born in London during the war, Newing had an enjoyable childhood with her older brother who claims with laughter and pride that she did "everything better than him." They were inseparable. This was the start of Newing's drive and determination to lead a successful career in medical physics. "I think my first memory in Woburn, and I was fairly tiny, was when we arrived at the back d...
