Hi,

Culture is the noun and cultural is the adjective. A similar pattern would be: music and musical or picture and pictorial and so on. The difference in the two you have mentioned I would say is: culture studies are studies about culture and cultural studies are studies that have an element of/aspect of culture about them.
