In CentOS 7, there is a file /X11/xinit/Xclients in which the default desktop will be checked. It will look for a file /etc/sysconfig/desktop. Therefore, we can simply create this file (/etc/sysconfig/desktop) and put the content "DESKTOP=KDE". For next login, KDE desktop environment will be used automatically.
