You don't even need unicode for that character, ISO-8859-1 has it.
I type it by pressing shift-´ (which is ¨), then 'u'.

For ñ I simply have a separate key.

On Linux, my keyboard layout has some useful Unicode stuff under AltGr + 
letters. For example “proper quotes” (AltGr + V and B respectively) or the © 
symbol (AltGr + Shift + C).
