The other answers are a bit outdated now. JQuery UI comes with AMD support. If you want the whole project just use bower install jquery-ui and then add it to paths. No shim needed.

If you want to load a subset of jQuery UI that you need in your app (while not loading extra bloat) then just use bower install jquery-ui to get the whole thing then use RequireJS build tool called r.js to create an AMD package of exactly the files you need.
